YUNĒ Guangzhou

The facades of the residential buildings are decorated with the graphic elements of the local landmark Canton Tower to form a symmetrical composition, which highlights a sense of ceremony and artistry and meanwhile visually stabilizes the building volumes that seem to be floating “into the clouds”. A sequence of curves full of variations is formed, eliciting a sense of gracefulness and elegance.

A color palette of silver grey, light grey, deep grey and champagne is chosen for the facades. Curtain walls formed by grey aluminum plates are dotted with champagne aluminum strips between each floor, revealing a rational geometric aesthetic. The color of champagne adds a tinge of luxury to the facades, inducing a vibrant, graceful and luxurious touch. The buildings are enveloped by curtain walls in all directions to showcase a sense of wholeness and fineness.

The design fully utilizes the plot’s features and divides the site into multiple terraced spaces. Several building clusters are formed, which generate a pleasing wavy skyline. Combined with the landscape design, the whole design maximizes the residential quality. Two landscape corridors run south-north across the residential community, dividing it into three areas.

The clubhouse accommodates multiple facilities including an art gallery, a yoga studio, a gym, a multi-functional fitness studio with private trainers, a lounge, a children’s recreation area, a water bar, a music classroom, a YUNĒ hall, an art hallway, a wine bar, a glass room, and a swimming pool. These facilities infill the residential community with taste, enrich the homecoming experience, and bring more convenience and grace to the future residents’ life.

To achieve sustainability, the project uses light aluminum plates as a main material. Unlike other decorative materials such as glass, stone, ceramics or aluminum composite materials, aluminum plates are highly capable of staying clean and self-cleaning. They are 100% recyclable and have a high residual value for recycling. In addition, the material can be recycled for numerous times with consistent performance as a way to protect the environment, reduce pollution and achieve sustainability.
