In Praise of Heritage
Where the old and new meet in harmony, the plan surrounding this villa is set to feature a series of overlapping spaces that document the region’s history in relation to ancient Chinese architecture as World Heritage Site.
As this villa is also a respite with modern facilities to host visiting dignitaries, its architectural framework is focused on preserving the traditional elements while infusing the building with contemporary touches and the local garden landscape.
