The overall planning of the channel Taipingyan Village B&B construction project is based on the balance between traditional building protection, emphasis on natural landscape and new forms of contemporary landscape architecture.
The overall planning uses the combination of architectural form and volume, and the principle of linear floating theory to carry out organic arrangement. It mainly adopts four kinds of mechanism combinations: linear, enclosed, curved and courtyard layout. Meet the functions and aesthetic needs of the scenic tourism comprehensive service.
The high-tech residential unit Earthhouse is launched in the existing natural conditions, taking into account the most abundant sunshine, and let each “Earth Warehouse” get the most beautiful natural landscape. All Earthhouses are concentrated on one side of the valley.
The main entrance is located on the east side of the site, connecting the main roads of the scenic spot. The ecological parking lot and the outdoor parent-child park form a functional group on both sides of the main entrance. The main entrance building is located between two pedestrian lane, separating the flow of people and the traffic. The secondary entrance in the southwest can directly enter the Jiangjun Mountain Scenic Area. The building group is divided into mountain group, wetland group, forest group and village group. Each functional group scene is bounded by an intermediate river channel. The northern mountain and woodland group is mainly composed of natural features. The southern shore wetland and woodland group mainly show the ecological equipment, forming a unique pattern of natural and scientific north and south. The north and south sides are connected by rivers and dams, taking into account the traffic demand of pedestrians and dealers, and naturally blending the functions of the two sides with the experience of the pastoral landscape.
