Rainwater Harvesting
Inner Mongolia is an arid region. Despite using traditional drainage designs, much of the rainfall and snowfall is lost. To address this, the design incorporates a sponge city underground water storage system, raised cubic lawns, and flush curbstones to maximize rainwater harvesting.
Divert Cold Currents
Hulunbuir is located in the northeastern part of China, where the lowest winter temperature can reach minus 40 degrees Celsius. As one of the first areas in China to be hit by Siberian cold currents, the design strategically uses multiple raised cubic lawns and walls to deflect the northwestern cold winds.
Reduce Noise and Dust
On a micro-scale, the project site is located at a busy intersection, with a large public plaza across the road intended for gatherings and activities. Therefore, this project focuses on creating a more private space, providing an intimate venue for smaller events.
