Nanhua Glimmer

Nanhua Glimmer is a public landscape park in Pingtung, Taiwan. A decommissioned school campus was transformed into an open park for the community and for elderly visitors. The former campus wall was removed, so the new planting and lighting connect with the surrounding streets. Curved concrete retaining walls, finished in terrazzo, echo the patterns of the pineapple fields and the folds of the mountain ridges. A mist facility with fine nozzles waters the plants and recreates the mountain mist. Embedded light strips spread even light at night.

Hill Mansion

Hill Mansion is a landscape design completed in 2021 in Nanjing, China. The site lies close to the waterfront of the Yangtze River, so the surrounding scenery is borrowed as part of the composition. Planting forms an undulating skyline that blends with the natural environment. Red maple trees, well known in the Qixia District, shape the main theme. At the entrance, a curved concrete wall represents wind moving between valleys, forests and water. A central pool at the lowest point of the site collects and purifies rainwater.
