In the rapidly growing city of Yiwu, near Hangzhou, China, this high-rise residential development exemplifies the integration of contemporary architecture and thoughtfully designed landscapes. Spanning 4.75 hectares (11.75 acres), the project comprises glass-and-metal towers surrounded by lush private gardens, offering a harmonious blend of luxury living and urban convenience. Retail spaces along the perimeter create an energetic atmosphere while providing essential amenities for residents.

The landscape design reflects the clean, minimalistic aesthetic of the towers while honoring Yiwu’s history as a hub for textile production. Linear and flowing forms, inspired by fabric and stitching, create a dynamic visual experience that extends the architectural design language into the landscape. Sinuous pathways and planting beds mimic the fluid movement of textiles, enhancing views from the towers and establishing a strong sense of place. The interplay between linear geometry and organic shapes mirrors Yiwu’s balance of tradition and modernity.

Clipped hedges, linear planting beds with contrasting textures, and rows of stately trees create structure, while dynamic stone paving patterns add rhythm and movement. At key entry points, rectilinear reflection ponds, accented with sculptural focal points, provide a grand arrival experience and timeless elegance.

Private gardens foster both active and contemplative lifestyles, with spaces for relaxation, recreation, and connection. Playful seating areas and gathering spaces engage residents of all ages, while colorful children’s play zones and event lawns encourage interaction and exploration. Covered exercise and activity areas beneath the towers ensure year-round usability, sheltered from the elements.

This residential development balances aesthetics, functionality, and cultural relevance, resulting in a living environment that celebrates modern luxury while remaining rooted in Yiwu’s rich heritage.
