Introduction

Located in the south of the Expo Park, Zhoujiadu Street Neighborhood is a high-density living block with many typical large residential communities. The semi-circular Nanmatou Road,where the project is located,passes through it.

Reason to Be Selected

In the regeneration design, the zigzag walkway is established at first. According to the location of the residential buildings along the street, the trees near the wall, and the functional nodes on the street, the path of the corridor was formed correspondingly.

Highlights:

The design is not only an extension to the internal environment of the community but also an expansion of the sidewalks by providing pocket gardens. In this way, each space not only has functional value but also interweaves the environment inside and outside the fence, which eliminates the sense of isolation brought by the fence, making this wall & garden a central place where both residents in the inner community and tourists in the outer street can get a sense of participation.

Conclusions

Making dynamic adjustments according to residents’ feedbacks in the implementation process, and flexibly incorporate surrounding factors such as bus station waiting area into the design without losing the original ideal scene.
