In consideration of the unity of the project, through the construction method of integration and strengthening, it finds the most suitable landscape expression for the site.
CHALLENGE: The main challenge is the limited construction time.The three parts of designer, client and construction team cooperated with each other effectively. The design team sent professionals to the site to guide and control the construction process to ensure the implementation of the project. With the concerted efforts, the project was finally completed; the sculpture production process is more complicated, and the size and materials have been repeatedly selected and deliberated. In addition, due to the poor surrounding conditions of the project site, after completion, the surrounding landscape was beautified accordingly.
