The project occupies the waterfront living district of Tangshan New Town in Jiangning, Nanjing, facing the Tangshui River where ecology is rich, roads are convenient and views are open, while plane trees, camphor and hackberry trees line the municipal road and interior space remains tight. How to build a high-quality aesthetic life on an urban site in dialogue with forest became the central question for LAURENT Landscape. Music, ranging from classical to pop, carries the spirit of an age; landscape likewise carries the soul's longing and rest, and the design uses the warmth of nature and the depth of music to create a unique resonance between place and people. Treating the natural wooded hills as a backdrop wall of daily life, the designers sought to shorten the distance between inhabitants and nature and to soften the boundary between home and wilderness in an increasingly crowded city. The street-facing landscape follows the building's external lines so that the urban display of the music hall reads coherently inside and out. Carrying the light curves of music inward, the entrance uses fluid, breathable lines that naturally form a flanked path. A strong ceremonial gate, rendered in pure white with extreme lines, encloses space that twists and turns; a canyon formed by walls then carries a tensile flowing art interface through the whole site. Walking through the winding road, dense flower borders build a refined, soft atmosphere that echoes ecological nature and erodes the line between home and wilderness. The route is deliberately light, slow and full of interest, each arc finding an unforced resonance with the space; a tallow forest contributes graceful poses, moving shadows and changing leaf color. To achieve lush greenery, client, designer and contractor controlled costs and specifications in drawing stages, selected every large tallow, hackberry and key middle-story tree by point on site, and coordinated closely during planting. Stone sculptures were refined to monolithic forms, naturally rounded; petal-shaped cascades were cut, polished and module-jointed to model-studied proportions; metal edge trims along roads reinforce the pursuit of refined quality.
