Buji Residences redefines the landscape of urban living in Shenzhen, blending innovative design with a vibrant community spirit. The bold landscape design by Ballistic Architecture Machine (BAM) supercharges the community spirit through an exciting mix of pattern, color, and lush green spaces.
Phase One introduces a captivating network of interconnected playgrounds, serving as the beating heart of the community. At its center stands the iconic “Playscraper,” a portmanteau of playground and skyscraper that captures the imagination of residents and visitors alike. This innovative structure not only provides a playground but also serves as a visual landmark, harmonizing with the surrounding architectural landscape.
In Phase Two, a magenta-hued corridor weaves its way through the development, offering shelter and guidance to residents as they navigate towards the vibrant focal point: the public pool. The corridor’s striking color palette and thoughtful design elements create an inviting atmosphere, drawing people towards the heart of the community.
At the heart of Buji Residences lies the Dance Moon Plaza, a lively gathering space adorned with shimmering disco balls and set against the backdrop of a purple moon. This enchanting plaza provides a stage for community celebrations and events, from dance parties to skateboard sessions.
BAM sets tranquil and calm garden oasis zones in the lush green areas which stand in contrast with the high energy patterns and colors of the social spaces. Phase One features a serene moon gate desert garden, evoking traditional Chinese aesthetics, while Phase Two introduces a variety of themed gardens, including a garden of love and a chess-themed oasis. These green spaces seamlessly blend with the natural surroundings, providing moments of calm and reflection amidst the urban landscape.
Buji Residences is a testament Shenzhen’s innovative ethos, pushing the boundaries of traditional design to create a vibrant and inclusive community. Through bold use of plants, patterns, colors, and materials, this project redefines the possibilities of high-density living ultimately creating a community space with the power to invigorate the city itself.
