Phoenix Tree Garden
Phoenix Tree Garden is a tea house garden set in a hutong courtyard in Beijing. The design turns a single large space into a series of linked scenic spots. A folding cloud wall and a curved moon door shift the internal axis and divide the outside of the garden from the inside. Small bridges, waterways and a stacked red rock mountain organize the new landscape order. Materials include a steel grille bridge, gray and colored cobblestone paving and small gray tiles. Several tea rooms with different views were created within 214.99 square meters.
Phoenix Tree Garden Tea Space by Qingfan Zhang was recognized as a grand illustration of architectural design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Phoenix Tree Garden Tea Space won the Silver A' Design Award in Architecture, Building and Structure Design in 2020. The A' Architecture, Building and Structure Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design accolade which honors superior design of skyscrapers, museums, residential buildings, commercial complexes, educational institutions, religious structures, infrastructure designs, landscaping projects and more.
