Golden Land, Central South, New City

Jindi Zhongnan Xincheng Dajing occupies a site on the north side of Steel Avenue in Longjiang, Shunde, Foshan, with an 8,200-square-meter landscape designed by Antaeus Group's First Comprehensive Division. The project responds to a contemporary condition: life in grey, fast-paced, technology-mediated neighborhoods has left residents spiritually empty and hungry for a forest-like, healthy, wise community. The proposal imagines what it would be like to live in a house planted in a park, where every breath carries oxygen from the trees and the view is beautiful both inside and out. Foshan's strong sunlight and warm, gentle wind set the climate for a lush green world. The sequence begins at an exquisite entry garden, then opens onto a green island in the water, a broad lawn fringed by shade where children run and play. Beyond it lies a time theater under a circular tree allée that gathers summer shade; a perforated metal spirit sculpture filters sunlight while the mottos of world-class universities unfurl on its surface, cultivating an academy-inflected atmosphere. The lawn welcomes all forms of life, and a joy island brings a beach-like feeling of sand and sea to children, with parents watching over laughing play. A library bookhouse children's zone nurtures early reading and dreams, while when travel is impossible, residents can move home outdoors: canopies, projection screens and picnic turns the front lawn into a resort-like campground. The project delivers a whole-age community organized around three ideas: a healthy home grounded in nature, a spiritual home shaped by academy-style life, and a new community model that fuses forested neighborhood, park, library and street into one seamless daily landscape.
