The focus of the landscape in paintings is expressions, but how does architecture become a narrative tool to record nature? The project is located in Liuzhou, a mountainous area with winding waters. Instead of simulating the landscape with shapes, we think it would be better to use light and shadow to create high mountains and deep water. The material façade is used to recreate the mental transitions of entering a deep forest, and to incorporate nature into the interior gestures.

Giving up persistence, we withdraw ourselves from the environment to maintain the clarity of non-stagnation. Therefore, we do not simulate a figurative landscape, but reproduce the experience of people wandering in the mountains through the multi-directional views of people zigzagging, climbing, looking up, or looking down between structures, and even the real and imaginary contours of reflections on the floor.
