The residential area consists of a classical Chinese courtyard house zone, a Neo-Chinese-style townhouse zone and a low-rise building zone belonging to the Greentown's Osmanthus Grace series.



The traditional Chinese philosophy – "the unity between people and nature" – is incorporated into the classical Chinese courtyard houses. With elements such as pavilion and corridor from traditional Chinese courtyard living culture, the design creates a residential environment with a humanistic touch, and peaceful homes among green mountains and clear waters. The garden-styled layout and architectural design are a response to the reputation of Yinchuan – known as the "watery place beyond the Great Wall", where the project name originates.



The Neo-Chinese-style townhouses are designed with a court in the front and a yard at the back, an integrated dining and living area, and a living terrace on the rooftop, which does not separate the dwellings from the city and meanwhile forms a close relationship with the nature, reflecting the ideal of pure, simple and cozy living.



The low-rise building zone is in low density, and is organized with several building cluster centers. The buildings are in great width and narrow depth with wide-view balconies and bay windows, and the layout design of the homes offers warmth and care for the occupants. The facade reveals Oriental understated luxury and combines classical and modern aesthetics, which results in a modern, unique yet simple building image.



In the supporting wellness facility zone, the goal is to create a relaxing and comfortable building and interior environment close to nature, and a medium for promoting the communication between man and nature to offer the elderly a quality living environment. Besides, a kindergarten with 9 classes is set on the northeast side of the plot to fulfill the local demands for preschool education.
