The golden land is free in Chunxiao Garden

Zidi Zaijin Chunxiao in Suzhou, developed by Gemdale Group's East China Sunan regional company with interiors by SelaVi and construction by Hangzhou Xingqitian Garden, is a sales garden that treats art as something that can be thought through rationally, logically and sustainably. The landscape continues the building's 4.2-metre grid module, reassembling and extending it into a systemic spatial condition that weakens the boundary between building and landscape, dissolving both into nature. The entire construction period was 35 days, and prefabricated assembly was introduced at the sales centre so that a high-quality, high-appearance result could be achieved at controlled cost. The front court is held together as a restrained, balanced box: a grid structure, rational thinking and an organic logic generate space that grows continuously. Extending the building's square module into three-dimensional geometry, scattered Chinese tallow trees articulate the harmony among people, plants and site. Visitors move through a forest-like secret realm and interact with a "magic mirror" element, producing a space of infinite exploration. Landscape is treated as an experiential field in which human orientation and place identity merge with the site; pure square elements are softened by flower borders and ornamental grasses, so that people participate in and grow together with nature. Gravel, water, lawn, planting and ecological mulch restore the raw state of a natural forest using plain, honest materials. The project is presented as a new attempt that breaks conventional design thinking, in which the simplest means produce the purest space.
