Powerchina Takaki Yuayasong Demonstration area

Tracing the source: inheriting and innovating Song Dynasty aesthetics. The project is located in Qixia District, Nanjing, in the Xianlin sub-city area. Long Ya Yarsong continues Song Dynasty aesthetics, using modern language and art to recreate the Song-style realm, and creating gardens through painting among mountain waters and mist. The design extracts spatial ritual layout from Autumn Colors over Streams and Mountains, creating a three-entry homecoming ritual: first entry the gate, second entry the garden, third entry the residence. It interprets the Song-style stream-mountain elegant realm through a contemporary lens, creating a model Song-style garden with three entries and nine chapters of elegance. Entering the painting: tracing the stream to know the elegance. Auspicious Crane Cloud Gate: facing the ritual residence, displaying the elegance of the grand chapter. The first entry, Ascending the Gate, continues Song ritual forms, ascending the gate to view the residence. Pine trees on both sides of the gate take their imagery from Listening Quietly to the Soughing of Pines,embodying the gentleman's elegance of wind in pines welcoming guests, where every step is both scenery and ritual. Four Streams Returning to the Hall: stepping into the foyer, the natural courtyard serves as the facing view, and the hollow outline of the begonia door frames the composition. In movement, pines and stones harmonize, evoking the elegance of one pond and three mountains. Flying eaves and upturned corners, silver waters enter the courtyard, unfolding in sequence with traditional landscaping techniques that create the mood of a garden full of spring colors entering the painting. Green Shadow Leisure Courtyard: entering a limited space, viewing heaven and earth. The second entry, Wandering the Garden: stepping through the begonia door into the garden, an ink-painting-like elegant realm unfolds. Winding paths lead to seclusion, still water ripples, and fish-scale stone slabs pave the pool bottom. The natural, heavy texture complements the architecture, with interweaving light and shadow creating a pure realm that returns to nature. Pavilions and waterside terraces deeply restore Song architectural details. In the courtyard full of fragrance, one leans on the railing and expresses feelings, with half a cup of clear tea, appreciating the painting and entering it.
