The Shangqiu Yuelong Mansion Demonstration Zone is inspired by "Alien Stars & Exploration", turning the originally limited geographical space into a "strange planet" full of unlimited imagination. This planet is a collection of people's imaginations about it, and everyone can have different interpretations of this planet, and everyone can describe their own alien world. In the site, a curve which is similar to the trajectory of a planet connects the various regions, adding a bit of mystery and rhythm to the entire space. As the line of sight moves along the trajectory, different landscape nodes are sometimes hidden and sometimes revealed, constantly inspiring people's curiosity and desire for exploration. As the boundary line between the alien world and the real world, the slowly undulating walls outside the landscape seem to be clearly demarcated, but its curvilinear shape extends infinitely so that the end cannot be seen easily.. The mysterious entrance adopts a unique mirror refraction to refract the original small passage into an endless and infinite repetitive visual space, which makes people lose their way as if they are walking in the endless universe. It is also like being in a dream and feeling The unpredictable changes of the stars in the universe. When the parallel worlds of light and shadows break free from the shackles of reality, people can find themselves in the unknown world. The colored LED lights on the ground of the passage are lit up one by one at night, and the refraction of the mirror surface instantly illuminates the dark space, creating a world that shimmers like a galaxy, forming an infinite space like the universe. You can see the brilliance of the stars and have an illusion of being lost in time and space. A children's playground is created for children specifically. Abundant interactive amusement facilities meet the needs of children of different ages, and the strange shapes trigger children's infinite fantasy. Here, the innocence is released infinitely, and the children's desire to explore the world is constantly being enlarged. On this strange planet which is full of joy, water represents vitality, and flowing living water can bring aura and vitality to their lives, and also carry their beautiful mark. The tranquil water scene reflects the shadows of the surrounding trees and buildings, turning the scene into two, reflecting on top and bottom. There’s a hazy when the wind and waves are calm. The breeze blows and makes some ripple. The falling superimposed water turns into motion, creating a changing landscape curve, which breaks through the monotony of sight. The infinity and mystery of the universe have always attracted people to explore. Although we cannot reach that mysterious realm at this moment, our imagination will not be fettered.
