Vector Architects converts an old sugar mill into a hotel retreat of magnificent craftsmanship 🌿 Designed by @vectorarchitects Images: Su Shengliang / Chen Hao / Vector Architects / Alila Yangshuo Located in Yangshuo region of China, the site for Alila Yangshuo is surrounded by verdant landscape of limestone hills and manoeuvring Li River, as it makes its way through its flood plains and towering giants. Once used as a sugar mill factory, the site had fallen in despair before being bought by the Alila group to develop a property, offering the guest a chance to immerse themselves in the landscape and amazing natural sights this region has to offer. The project site located on a 1960s old factory complex is sandwiched between a busy road on one side and expansive landscape on the other. To work on the project, Vector Architects was brought on board to build a hotel which is holistically designed and environmentally friendly. Initial discussion led to the decision of restoring the sugar mills and refurbishing them as part of the project. The old structure and the bursting limestone hills became the inspiration for the project as a way to build something new while acknowledging the past. #chinaarchitecture #resort #adaptivereuse #adaptivereusearchitecture #architecture #architecturephotography #architecturedesign #architecturephoto #architecturedetail #arquitetura #arquiteto #arquiteturaedecoração #arquitecturamoderna #modernarchitecture #contemporaryarchitecture #sustainabledesign #sustainablearchitecture #greenarchitecture #refurbished #hoteldesign #interiordesign #hotelinterior #hotelinteriordesign #resortdesign #resortarchitecture #sustainabletravel #ecotravel #ecotraveller Follow #designstudiomag 🤝 @designstudio_mag https://www.instagram.com/p/CdDuGiYNIuP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Tulou - Xiamen - China par Laurent LIU Via Flickr : Canon EOS 700D The Fujian tulou are Chinese rural dwellings unique to the Hakka in the mountainous areas in southeastern Fujian, China. They were mostly built between the 12th and the 20th centuries. A tulou is usually a large, enclosed and fortified earth building, most commonly rectangular or circular in configuration, with very thick load-bearing rammed earth walls between three and five stories high and housing up to 800 people. Smaller interior buildings are often enclosed by these huge peripheral walls which can contain halls, storehouses, wells and living areas, the whole structure resembling a small fortified city. Les tulou du Fujian sont des architectures traditionnelles situées dans la province du Fujian, dans le sud-est de la Chine. Ces bâtiments communautaires sont habités par les Hakka.Ainsi, plusieurs expressions sont utilisées pour désigner ces résidences : "tulou Hakka", "forteresse Hakka", etc. En 2008, 46 tulou de la province du Fujian ont été inscrits sur la liste du patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO. Ce type d'architecture a été inscrit en tant qu' : "exemples de bâtiments exceptionnels de par leur taille, leur tradition de construction et leur fonction, ils constituent un exemple unique de peuplement humain, fondé sur une vie en communauté et des besoins défensifs tout en maintenant une relation harmonieuse avec leur environnement."
