Located in Xinyu, within China’s Jiangxi Province, the site borders on Fairy Lake, a romantic locale that holds a place in folk culture.
The client planned a surreal retreat that would allow the guests to escape from mundane life, relax, and enjoy nature. Therefore, four ellipsoidal houses, the Seeds, were constructed. They responded to the site’s condition and functional requirements, while created a unique living experience and realized the client’s ideals and vision.
This project has been longlisted in the small building category of Dezeen Awards 2021.
