Description
Located in Shanghai’s “Taopu Smart City,” the urban healthcare community Guohua Heyuejia Retirement Community covers 13,800 m², blending 27,000 m² of independent and nursing apartments with community services, including a 1,000 m² canteen and activity center for locals. Adjacent to a 960,000 m² green space, it supports the area’s eco-tech transition, creating an open, vibrant senior living model.
The “urban symbiosis” design uses an enclosed layout for optimal light and space, with nursing apartments in the northeast to reduce stress for independent residents. Inspired by Chinese garden principles of “skillful borrowing, refined suitability,” it forms an “Ideal Community” balancing efficiency and experience. Elevated ground floors,立体连廊, and multi-level gardens foster social vitality. With 269 rooms and 100 nursing beds for 500 residents, decentralized amenities promote close-knit ties, with adaptable spaces for future needs.
The pearlescent white and champagne gold façade with curtain-wall-like nodes exudes elegance. Tackling urban density, it encourages active resident engagement, crafting a joyful, connected home.
