More and more "Longshan" owners commute between urban areas and projects every day. When you walk into the community and see the courtyard that villas will be carefully decorated, you can obviously feel the popularity here. The development of Longshan New Residence 10 years, from the earliest German-style villa to the Suzhou Garden Villa now returning to the traditional living form in China, is more like the epitome of Beijing villa market. As one of the high-end Chinese villas in the current villa market, Yingyuan's most outstanding value to loyal fans of Chinese villas lies in the hardcover courtyard that the project has spent a lot of thought and cost to build, because this is the life created in the original Suzhou garden. Twenty-four sets of China villa courtyard model areas, which were professionally built by the design team of "Xiangshan Gang" who mastered the traditional Soviet gardening techniques, provided China people with a Soviet-style courtyard that has been admired for thousands of years. Out of the inherent thinking of "quadrangle villa", I have been to many countries, I am familiar with domestic real estate projects, and I have seen countless times, styles and architectural schools. For our developers, of course, we have our own preferences, and development projects will also be branded with our own brand. But generally speaking, Yingyuan is different from the German style of Longshan Xinxin Home in the past three periods because it appeared together with the original Suzhou Garden, and the decisive factor is the market itself. I have seen a group of villa index survey data published in 2004: in the purchasing tendency of villas, the choice of European style suddenly dropped from the past1oo% to 25.8%, while the willingness to choose Chinese style increased by about 25%. From this, we realize that more and more people in China are tired of European villas, and more and more people are returning to the traditional lifestyle in China. How to explain this phenomenon? In my opinion, China has been learning from western civilization for decades, and we are used to measuring ourselves by the standards set by others, copying from lifestyle to style. In this process, it is inevitable to abandon the national traditional culture. Fortunately, some people first woke up in material aesthetics. They instinctively found that the living environment they yearned for was not exotic European style, and instead began to recall the traditional living form of China with small bridges, flowing water and high walls, and the resulting tranquility, peace and enjoyment. When they woke up, they began to look for villa projects that could suit China people's cultural way and spiritual way. "Creating the most valuable living space" is the business philosophy of Vantone Real Estate, and it is also the reason why we broke away from the inherent thinking of "developing traditional quadrangle villas in Beijing" and tried to create an authentic Suzhou private garden villa in the northern region for the first time. Chinese-style villas in quadrangles were first observed in the Tang Dynasty in 2003, and private garden-style villas in Suzhou were first realized in Longshan Sakura Garden in 2005. Yingyuan is created for those who like the traditional way of life in China. Its value lies in the realization of Beijing's pure architectural form of "white walls and tiles" and Suzhou's private gardens of "pavilions, bridges and flowing water", which reproduces the life of China for thousands of years. Yingyuan uses cornices and arches, white walls and tiles, carved wooden windows and stacked stones in fish ponds to express the material environment of Suzhou gardens with a series of China symbols, showing the lifestyle advocated by the owner: "Farming and reading are one, which is common to ordinary people. How can it be neglected?" Farming and reading go hand in hand, with stability and distance. These two behaviors not only cultivated the master's sentiment, but also became family heirlooms of China people for thousands of years. In the sales office of Yingyuan, there is an old couplet, "Xiao Zou Lu is surrounded by books, a harmonious family, an ancient Tang Yu". This is our ideal, and it is also the life realm that residents are expected to experience personally: reading leisure, gardening in the garden, enjoying the four seasons, and feeling the influence of China traditional culture in daily life. Bear the multiple needs of self-cultivation and social function. The traditional houses in Beijing are "official standard" with quadrangles as the carrier, with high walls and doors, square and stable atmosphere. Even now, developers in Beijing are more willing to transplant the architectural form of quadrangles. Although traditional villas in China are by no means limited to quadrangles, it is difficult to realize Suzhou-style quiet and natural literati gardens due to the construction skills and regional differences of craftsmen. In 2000, we developed Jiangfeng Garden in Suzhou, which can be said to be the earliest villa project to explore "Chinese style and western style", which also reflects our profound heritage in ancient architecture gardens. It is a Suzhou garden built by "Xiangshan Gang" craftsmen who are loyal to the ancient law, recreating the original white walls, tiles and small bridges. The architectural function is not inferior to that of European and American villas, and it is favored by Suzhou local cultural people and foreign Chinese with strong cultural complex in China. Therefore, Vantone Real Estate also chose to cooperate with us to develop Suzhou Garden Villa Project for the first time in Beijing, which is another example of China architecture different from quadrangles. Ji Cheng said at the beginning of "On the Creation of Gardening and Metallurgy" that "there are three masters, seven masters, non-masters and masters". "Masters" includes both masters and the main craftsmen who design and build gardens. Located in the "Suzhou Garden Villa", the "capable people" of the authentic Xiangshan School are specially invited from Suzhou. They are proficient in painting, poetry and gardening techniques. "able people" follow the classic ancient gardening method, do not draw pictures in advance, have their own gullies in their chests, improvise rockeries, plant trees and flowers, build pavilions and so on. Therefore, the artistic conception of each mansion garden in Yingyuan presents subtle differences. Mr. Zhang Kaiji, an architect, said: "The so-called deep house compound is wonderful in that it has a front yard, a back yard and a cross yard. This yard is a multifunctional space for the whole family. Build an arbor and a wedding shed in summer. There have been many stories in the yard. " As a matter of fact, this is a compound that best conforms to the traditional culture and spirit of China. The north is called compound, and the south is called garden. Very different from the western open gardens, China literati has always liked to close themselves, live in private gardens, enjoy the four seasons and make friends. Although I am in the downtown area, I seem to be living in seclusion in the mountains. This is actually the life dream of every modern China person. Therefore, every villa in Yingyuan is surrounded by a "powder wall", and at the junction with the neighbor's yard, a double-layered horse head wall is also erected high. Horsehead wall was originally used for fire prevention, and it is like an aerial fence here. Every yard will not be seen by neighbors, and it can also ensure a good view. Standing on the balcony and looking out, rows of eaves and tiles outline a skyline in the deep blue sky. If I were to describe the story of modern people in Suzhou gardens, it would be like this: in my spare time, I would rest on rattan chairs in the gardens, read books and enjoy tea. The garden was quiet, and the surging mountain springs added some natural sound effects. I walked along the winding cloister with my hands behind my back. With the change of the scenery in front of us, many memories will slowly diffuse, leaning against the half-hill pavilion with upturned cornices, leaning over and watching koi fish swim around in the pond. Of course, Suzhou Garden is not only a place for the owner to cultivate self-cultivation, but also has the social function that modern villa gardens pay attention to. For example, Ye, a painter, put a stage in his Suzhou garden and built it on the surface of the pond, echoing the hall from a distance. There were many famous "Ji Ya Tang Hui" who came here to attract friends, first enjoying tea in the garden and then listening to the opera. In fact, ancient Suzhou gardens were used by literati to receive visitors, just like outdoor living rooms. Modern people are a little unfamiliar with such names. Ji Ya and Tang Hui will be replaced by more westernized words such as Party and Party. We can't let everyone return to the traditional way of life, but in the form of recreating the traditional Suzhou gardens, let modern China people find a living space where they can rest quietly and settle down, so that their lives and spirits can be supported.

If few people would define Jingcheng Expressway as their first residence before its opening, all this has changed now.

Reconstructing the artistic conception of Chinese space For any interior designer of a modern Chinese villa, the primary problem to be solved is nothing more than "the combination of Chinese charm and the living comfort of contemporary people", which should not only satisfy the lifestyle of modern people and realize the modernity and comfort of living, but also retain the artistic conception of traditional Chinese space and connect the bedroom space with the outdoor Chinese courtyard and architectural charm. At present, the conventional practice of a large number of Chinese villa projects on the market is to "mix and match", and put western-style sofas and Chinese long tables into indoor space together. I believe this is also the interior decoration style that most residents will choose. The function of Yingyuan model problem is to respect the characteristics of architectural style and emphasize the realization of Chinese spatial artistic conception. For those customers who prefer the traditional lifestyle of China, this space is in line with their imagined life scene: orderly, polite and elegant. The overall design principle of Yingyuan Garden is: having both form and spirit, leading Suzhou gardens. In the design of indoor space, whether to put purlins, rafters, paving blue bricks and installing traditional window sashes will depict the original appearance of Suzhou garden mansion. Obviously, if we blindly return to tradition for the sake of traditional life atmosphere, we will be full of traditional symbols of China, and will only pay attention to "form" and lack touching "spirit". After several rounds of design revision, our final direction is to organize China traditional symbols with modern design techniques and reconstruct the charm of China space-paying attention to etiquette and solemnity. Take the shaping of the hall as an example. Living room is not a modern living room, but a traditional hall. Push open the double wooden doors left unlocked and step into them, and you will feel the contrast with real life strongly, which is completely elegant in the old houses in the south of the Yangtze River. However, if you look at this space with a professional eye, you will find that all the traditional elements of China have been treated by modern design techniques. For example, the ground is not a traditional blue brick, but an unpolished black stone. At the same time, wooden strips are used to close the mouth, and then blue-and-white porcelain pieces with strong China elements are specially fired as nodes, which not only maintains the style of traditional houses, but also adds exquisite decorative expressions. Accordingly, the treatment of ceiling and the ground effect complement each other, and the wooden ceiling and nodes are embedded with wood carvings, which makes the grid modulus of ceiling "caisson" just the same as that of the ground, thus continuing the charm of Chinese architectural space. Of course, the modern method of reconstructing China's traditional space is not only used in halls, but also in doors, windows, stairs and sloping roofs, so as to achieve the goal of returning to tradition without being divorced from reality. The highlight of the interior design of the whole villa is the underground space, which is completely different from the traditional Jiangnan residential space atmosphere, and correspondingly strengthens the modern design techniques and weakens the Chinese space symbols. Considering the lack of lighting in the underground space, in order to avoid the oppressive feeling brought by the owner, we regard it as a "secret room study" for people to think about. By imitating the "wardrobe drawer", we grid three walls, make drawers irregularly on the thin skeleton, and match colors with China red and black. If we use film language to explain: this space has become very dramatic, which contradicts people's cognition of the dry Chinese living space: but as long as the fine products are fine, the details such as pen and ink, ink, inkstone and tassel reveal the Chinese charm everywhere.
