United Kingdom Architecture News - Jun 23, 2014 - 14:30   2470 views

Between an architecture model and a landscape installation, the exhibited artwork "Silhouette Shanshui" is inspired by MAD’s latest project ‘Nanjing Zendai Himalayas Center’. 

“Nanjing Zendai Himalayas Center” is MAD’s latest practice on the design concept “Shanshui City.” Surrounded by tall buildings, at the center of the site is a village-like community of low buildings, connected by footbridges and nestled into the landscape. This scene of footbridges, artificial hills and flowing water together creates a poetic moment at the heart of the project.

While the project just started construction, the artwork provides visitors an opportunity to feel and experience “Shanshui,” the artistic conception of based on traditional Chinese garden.
