"On the banks of the Sanya Haitang River, where tides ebb and flow, the climate is warm, and islands, coconut groves, and dense mangroves unfold in layers."
"We respond to the fudo with a continuous village and an undulating roof. The silver rooftop interpenetrates with the lush greenery, intertwining the calm of metal with the abundance of the tropics."
"The architecture maintains a humble empathy with nature, while the vast shadows it casts care for and shelter the people and life along the water's edge."
The design of the waterfront village on the Sanya Haitang River integrates with the local climate and landscape. Inspired by Tetsurō Watsuji's concept of 'fudo', the architecture features a continuous layout and an undulating silver roof. This roof blends with the surrounding greenery, creating a balance between metal and tropical abundance. The structure is designed to empathize with nature, providing shelter and care for the community and wildlife along the riverbank.
