New Hope Tianfu D10 in Chengdu's Jinjiang central business district is constrained by supertall surroundings that make the site feel compressed. The design takes heaven round and earth square as the landscape framework, with the conceptual idea of a mustard seed containing Mount Sumeru. Water veins divide and connect multiple living systems, while the central field is an open gathering space. The design balances tradition and contemporary through modern artistic life, using mountain form and flowing-water atmosphere in futuristic forms that collide with natural mood. A city sculpture symbolizing breakthrough breaks through fixed concepts, while mirror water and sculpture converse morphologically. The eye of D10 sculpture introduces sky concepts, spreading outward from an eccentric center with jade-disc auspiciousness combined with the architectural cong ritual vessel, fusing modernism and Eastern culture. The main entry combines a long display facade with sculptural petal-shaped sentry boxes. A custom metal canopy hides a starry sky, with nebula and water-ripple effects that shift with light. Natural curves continue through grass mounds that enclose different functional spaces, with an art corridor following river-like curves that vertically extend organic feeling into a three-dimensional canyon forest. The sunken courtyard adds layered vitality, with water curtains integrated into architecture. Planting follows a new mountain-water methodology, with species sourced from four provinces and two cities across 60,000 kilometers, composed through Chinese philosophy to inject botanical energy into body and mind.
