DESIGN NAME: Xanadu
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Landscape
INSPIRATION: The design idea based on the concept of forest life leaves a green space in a bustling city. Living in the landscaping environment, people enjoy the life of nature. In a laid-back space of a forest home in a big environment, returning home symbolizes coming back to a tranquil Xanadu where is secluded from the bustling city and where people finding peace of mind.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This design project makes use of the features of small space to create the unprecedented experience of space. The residential community has two entrance traffic flows, each of which connects the narrow city plan road on the southeast side. Considering the small road by the community entrance, the designer reserves a big green space alongside the buildings.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The simple and natural design plan reduces the impact of the land development on the base environment. The wide sidewalk between the residential community and road is planted with diverse trees, and it is decorated with the furniture agreeable to the local humanistic image and concept, thus creating a pleasant walking space. The hidden fountain constructed on the courtyard irregularly jets water, therefore creating an unscheduled dynamic landscape, a square for the community residents, and the best playground with the adjacent courtyard green space.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The spraying water mist adjusts the microclimate to the comfortable extent. The architectures, in the initial phase of construction, were designed with the concept of sustainability. The green materials came to the top in the list when selecting the construction materials.
CHALLENGE: As to the recycled water, the permeable and recyclable engineering method protects the natural environment and land, and it improves airflow by changing the temperature as well, thus protecting the environment and reducing the effect of an urban heat island.
