China

The northwestern part of Beijing is a place with the richest historical heritage. Nestled here, SERENITY MANSION inherits the legacy of Zhongguancun Software Park to its north and neighbors the Old Summer Palace Ruins Park to its south. It is poised to shape the future at the convergence of industry and academia, coexisting harmoniously with the millennium-old cultural heritage of the "Three Hills and Five Gardens."
The landscape design honors the site's cultural heritage, creating a naturally serene and internationally sophisticated residence atop this royal cultural haven. It incorporates natural landscapes into the garden and blends the stately ceremonial axis of royal grandeur with nature. Taking the Villa Lante as a model and adopting the garden design approach that combines Chinese and Western elements seen in the Western-style buildings of the Old Summer Palace, it crafts a unique abode for the literati. The ceremonial entrance is a grand gateway reminiscent of a flourishing age; the sunken water courtyard serves as a legendary ceremonial atrium; the garden corridor is an exclusive promenade for philosophical contemplation; the water-axis garden is a heartfelt haven of nature; the terraced garden is a poetic gathering place passed down through generations; and the mountain-water garden offers a secluded retreat amidst the remnants of Baiwang Mountain. Within this multi-dimensional landscape of mountains and waters, one can feel a lasting sense of peace within.
