Located in Shenzhen, Haoxiang Lake Park is connected to four urban rivers. As an important stormwater retention pond, it has played an important role in local flood control and pollution interception.

However, due to the deteriorating water quality and the occupation of industrial plants around the lake, it has been gradually forgotten by the surrounding residents.

This project started in 2019. Haoxiang Lake and the surrounding watershed jointly carried out ecological management, which greatly improved the overall water quality. Through the opportunity of urban renewal, the space surrounding the lake is re-positioned and planed as an open waterfront park.

This project has been shortlisted in the landscape project category of Dezeen Awards 2021.
