The site of the project is located in the Shuhe block. When the window is opened, the warm sunshine and the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain are within reach, and the towering mountains meet the majestic nature, full of grandeur and poetic feelings.
In this place with a long history, a toast culture with excellent cultural characteristics has been created. In the thousands of years of its existence, the Naxi architecture is one of the things that shine to the Lijiang in all its glory. The so-called “Three Squares and One Wall,” A four-in-a-five patio and a horse-turning corner tower.” is its main feature. So he told us that we must take a historical perspective and look at this building with thousands of unique Chinese national cultures.
The toast is majestic, and the landscape of Lijiang conveys a gentle and peaceful feeling. The designer respects history and culture but does not emphasize cultural connotation excessively. On the basis of respecting culture, the designer should also express, Use the work to convey the feelings of self.
After understanding the background of the project, the architecture in our eyes is more like a wise female of the Naxi ethnic group who has been baptized for a long time. History has transformed her temperament into an elegant Naxi architecture. She was sitting alone in the starry night of Haoyue, bathed in moonlight, and there was no trace of fireworks around the city. Darkness was her state at the moment.
In the lighting design, the visual characteristics of people at night require careful consideration by the designer. The light environment before the design of this project comes from natural light sources, so the brightness of the project cannot be too bright. We take the illuminance of the moon as a reference to Calculate the illuminance of the building, quietly giving her light while allowing her to continue to blend quietly into the natural night. As a designer, the design work is often very ambitious. The modern elements of reinforced concrete have actually disturbed nature, but we still have lingering human feelings in our hearts, so we try not to disturb the natural environment or even the project. In itself, it is contradictory but respectful thinking.
The building is a typical civil structure. We hope that even in the dark night, we can tell people about its past, so at the top of the building, we use linear lighting to gently outline it and put it on the mountain. The undulating shape is clearly displayed. The faint light of the roof makes the tiles with historical marks appear slowly; the deep eaves at the top of the building have a certain slope, which avoids the heavy dullness and shows a beautiful and smooth curve. We chose the floodlight to only highlight The cornices at both ends show the sense of ceremony so that this graceful lady can not look too grand.
Hidden floodlights inside the hanging fish to illuminate the gables to express the texture and texture of the building itself; we still use conventional standard lighting for the wall surface, but compared to other projects, we chose linear lamps with relatively low power The reason for washing the wall is as mentioned above, the overall brightness is to be controlled in the “dark vision” range while not disturbing the entire area environment.
Finally, we placed a hidden amber lamp in the alcove, candlelight swaying in the night, accompanied by grass and mud fragrance filled with a mysterious atmosphere.
For the design of indoor lighting, the basis is that functional lighting is a necessary premise. After all, solving problems is the designer’s first element. We put forward the concept of “Mixing” to reintegrate all the feelings of the project, historical accumulation, national culture, and natural state.
