Merchants·The Bund of Nantong

The Bund of Nantong is located in Nantong. As a perfect combination of natural landscape and practical functions from the inside to the outside, the project has infused fictious and realistic approaches, light and darkness, culture and humanities, architecture and environment. Through a cross-border dialogue between man, space and nature, it presents a scenery of “moist wavy lake and riverside picturesque mountains”, depicting the ever-changing breathtaking lakeside views which is light-hearted and interesting, an era’s yearning for a natural life.

31 Design has considered the architectural landscape based on interior completeness and overall layout. Inspired by the flow of the Yangtze River and the linear design of architectures, it has extended the outdoor experience of viewing and walking to indoor scenario and incorporated the seasonal changes and natural elements of the garden to achieve situational communion. The eye-catching linear patterns bring about modernity and elegance to the space atmosphere and the beauty of flowing art to its utmost extent, blurring the boundaries between indoors and outdoors and creating a sense of organic completeness. The contrast between light and darkness, fictious and realistic scenes, different textures and the polishing of exquisite details, all make people resonate with space in their coexistence.

The design team have learned from changes and combinations in nature, infused the feelings and longings of a happy life, and put every design into a larger field and beautiful scenes, which realize an infusion of interior and exterior space and a continuous and flowing space order, presenting multi-dimensional functional partitions including exhibition, negotiation, office, leisure, etc., and forming an elegant and natural artistic place with mature spatial scale.
