The Communist Party of China Zhuji County "a" red education base

However far you travel, you must not forget the road you came from. At this important historical moment as the Communist Party of China enters its second century, the Zhuji County First Congress Red Education Base was jointly built by the Architectural Design and Research Institute of Zhejiang University, the Zhuji Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, the Jiyang Sub-district Office, the Zhuji Urban-Rural Investment Group, Zhejiang Zhancheng Construction Group, and Fengya Songyang Cultural Communication Group, and was completed on June 28, 2022, offering high respects and sincere wishes for the 101st anniversary of the Party. The landscape design strives to echo and be self-consistent with the architectural design in logic, expression, and construction strategy, jointly expressing and sublimating the red revolutionary spirit so that architecture and landscape interpenetrate to achieve complete fusion and unity. The original dripping cliff wall, the cramped red cliff, the majestic mountains, and the mountain slopes covered in yellow flowers are extracted as non-contiguous but highly typical memory fragments; using red washed-stone walls as the thread, different spatial scenes are organized in sequence within the narrow site, constructing a narrative and literary place of memory. Overall, by looking back at history, the building becomes a place for collecting, storing, and displaying historical memory; through perceptible scenes and artistic narration, it transmits and re-educates the red spirit. People construct their understanding of history through a series of situations, endowing them with new spiritual meaning. The landscape design strengthens and extends the architectural narrative, integrating the red spirit symbolically into every part of the site, including planting, paving, and landscape furniture, forming a continuous sequence of red-spirit spaces that gradually leads emotional resonance to a final climax. The starting point in the forest: the front entrance space retains the original camphor trees, and raised shale micro-terrain combined with background grasses such as pennisetum and pampas grass half-conceals the building, creating a mood that first withholds then releases. The building appears and disappears as one walks, inviting visitors to explore. Plants with volume, posture, seasonal character, and story awaken unique site memory and integrate the surrounding environment. Memories beneath the wall: ascending the winding road to the main entrance, visitors are greeted by a sloped red washed-stone wall and a water curtain. The curved road symbolizes the tortuous but unyielding struggle of the Party, while the lush juniper horizontalis symbolizes the revolutionary spirit of martyrs succeeding one another and enduring forever. The sloped wall and water curtain abstractly translate the dripping cliff landscape of the original meeting site at Dishui Temple, immersing visitors in the historic founding achievement of the Zhuji County First Congress. The main building, monument, and landscape walls represented by this sloped wall uniformly use red washed stone, with local gray gravel and terrazzo on selected buildings and paving, constructing a present, vivid, emotional red memory while creating a unified, solemn memorial place. The memorial in the court: passing through the water-curtain walkway, one enters a front courtyard defined by gravel, landscape stones, sculpture, mirror water, and blade walls. Blade walls of varying lengths, heights, turns, solids and voids, continuities and interruptions, enclose, divide, screen, penetrate, extend, and reflect to create an interior-exterior environment richly experienced within the mountain-water setting. Clean, simple washed-stone paths guide visitors forward into the enclosed blade walls where time stands still, as if entering the longed-for historical years.
