The Osmanthus City Series residential buildings came from one of the company's early signature works, Hangzhou Osmanthus City. The series has adjusted and changed more or less based on the original project while maintaining its design concept and core philosophy.

Plan Structure: The Osmanthus City Series consists mostly of low-rise residential buildings. Depending on land usage and market demand, there are also small number of houses and medium-rise buildings. Due to a relatively low population density, roads at the community level are shared by both pedestrians and vehicles while inside each cluster walkways and driveways are separate. The problem of “ownerless” space often exists in regular communities. To solve that, two or more individual buildings within a same cluster, together with a relatively confined courtyard, are formed into a highly integrated unit. Road systems and amenities are designed around the routes of residents1 daily activities. The rest of the space takes advantage of high green coverage as background or enclosure. Semi-underground parking garages are designed to utilize the space between buildings. This keeps most residences away from motor vehicle noises.

 Amenities: Usually each community has a large-scale public recreation area. It is separated from buildings and driveways. Besides safety concerns, activities in the area will not disturb residents living nearby, nor will people inside the recreation area feel uneasy being “stared at” by them. Inside each block, parking garages are built underground. Landscaping is designed to optimize space and traffic.

Unit Design: Unit design emphasizes the integrity of each individual building. While each building is different, much attention is paid to make sure buildings within the same group share similarities. These similarities are achieved via veneer materials selection, color scheme and detail design. By choosing bricks and paint that are commonly used for the exteriors of residence buildings, it forms a simple yet elegant style. It reflects the spirit of European style architecture without simply choosing European style materials.
