The Grand Canal: A Fusion of History and Modern Elegance

YHDQ Design's Award-Winning Real Estate Sales Center in Yangzhou

Yangzhou, the city where the project is located, is a place brimming with poetic charm. Its cultural heritage, nurtured by poetry and time, has resulted in a unique temperament that is reflected in the details of The Grand Canal project. The designer has infused this elegance into the project, creating an art space that harmonizes perfectly with the local temperament through color, home furnishings, and specially-made artwork.

The Grand Canal project is situated in a tributary of the Yangzhou section of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, the oldest section in the center of the canal. This location brings together the history and culture of Yangzhou, providing a rich backdrop for the project. The combination of ancient and modern Oriental aesthetics not only carries the history but also embraces the modern elegant taste, contributing to the success of this project.

The project stands out for its unique features. It was realized using materials such as glass, wood, and cloth, spanning an area of 1462 square meters. A particularly notable feature is the inclusion of 2500 manually blown glaze flower pieces by professional glaze artisans, symbolizing 2500 years of Yangzhou's prosperity. This inclusion of manual inheritance art fills the space with poetry.

The project was completed between December 2020 and April 2021. The most challenging aspect of the project was the integration of poetry and art space, which was achieved through multiple key refinements and special works of art. The prosperous times along the Yangzhou Canal through the ages are concentrated in poems and restored in special works of art, as revealed in the underlying research for this design.

The Grand Canal project has been recognized for its outstanding design and innovation, winning the Silver A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award in 2022. This prestigious award is given to top-of-the-line, creative, and professionally remarkable designs that demonstrate outstanding expertise and innovation. These designs, admired for their strong technical characteristics and splendid artistic skill, showcase a remarkable level of excellence and introduce positive feelings, amazement, and wonder.

The project is a testament to YHDQ Design's commitment to creating spaces that reflect the history and culture of their locations while incorporating modern aesthetics. The Grand Canal is more than just a real estate sales center; it is a poetic space that embodies the spirit of Yangzhou.
