Lies across Dadian lake to Zhujiajiao old town, the resort adopts a spatial organization casting a number of boxes with different sizes, proportions and textures into the site. The interweaving and interaction of modern cubes create a dramatic atmosphere with the scene of traditional settlement. Detailed by the lattice, rockery and bamboo, the whole resort is a blending of modern construction with a subtle reference to historical building form in the riverine towns. Outside, the rich manners of decoration, landscaped design and building material individualize each courtyard. The openings of courts and walls frame lots of giant views of the lake and human landscape. Inside, a rich procession of space is formed that recalls the experiential sequence of traditional Chinese gardens.
