No house should be above nature.
It should fit in there. It belongs there.
They live there in harmony.
Nestled within the serene beauty of Guangxi, our homes are designed to blend seamlessly with the natural surroundings. We believe that every dwelling should be an extension of the landscape, not a disruption to it.

CONCEPT
7 Jan 2019
Life is the starting point of all design
Beibuwan No. 1 is located on the south side of Beihai Haijing Avenue, which is known as the ‘No. 1 road with sea view in Guangxi’, and has more than 700 metres of coastline, making its location extremely scarce. The project has a gross floor area of 492,369 square metres, with building heights ranging from 106 metres to 194 metres, depending on the location of the undulations.


Using modern design techniques for expression, symbiosis with the environment and re-implantation of functions, Heung Yuean Windows and Doors optimises the building structure through functional components and enhances the control of light and temperature in order to stimulate the potential of the site's space and expand the spatial state.
