The Regeneration of Oriental Landscapes Marketing Center

The Regeneration of Oriental Landscapes

The Regeneration of Oriental Landscapes is a marketing center located in Ningbo, China. The design takes its clues from the islands of Meishan, where waterways cross in many directions. Curved lines shape the plan, and still and moving areas alternate. Outside, a bamboo forest sways and casts light and shadow into the rooms. Bamboo links the interior and the exterior, so the boundary between building, landscape and interior becomes soft. The minimalist principles of Song Dynasty aesthetics and modernism guide the whole space. The project was completed in November 2021.
