Case study on the production of ancient architectural models for Chinese style courtyard gardens
This case study is based on the Chinese style courtyard garden model shown in the figure. Starting from the needs of cultural display and design expression, it breaks down the customized process of garden architecture models that combine traditional form and modern aesthetics, providing a visual carrier for cultural tourism projects, design display, and cultural dissemination.
1、 Core demands of the project
The project prototype is a typical Chinese style courtyard building complex, integrating pink walls and black tiles, corridors and water pavilions, and courtyard water features. The model needs to accurately reproduce the spatial pattern of "garden within garden, garden within garden" for design proposal reporting, cultural tourism investment promotion, and cultural exhibition. The core demand is to fully present the rhythm of Chinese architecture and the aesthetic beauty of gardens at a limited scale, while also considering the delicacy and durability of the model, meeting the long-term display and long-distance transportation needs, and adapting to domestic and foreign multi scene viewing and remote delivery standards.
2、 Full process customization service
1. Preliminary plan and spatial planning
Based on the architectural design drawings and garden intention drawings provided by the client, we have sorted out the core points of model production: clarifying the spatial logic of the courtyard's "enclosed layout and progressive courtyard", and restoring the traditional form of sloping roofs, gray brick walls, and red eaves; Simultaneously plan the hierarchical distribution of water features, corridors, and vegetation to ensure the harmonious unity of garden atmosphere and architectural function. To meet the display requirements, a digital accuracy verification mechanism is established to ensure that the model is consistent with the original designed courtyard scale, building positioning, and landscape node height. The details of the plan are confirmed through remote docking throughout the process, and it is suitable for efficient delivery and international transportation requirements.
2. Restoration of the main building and garden scene
The production phase revolves around the expression of architectural form and the creation of garden atmosphere
Individual building: Accurately restoring the sloping roof, gray brick walls, and red eaves of the courtyard, reflecting the elegant texture of Chinese architecture through simple lines and color contrast; The details of the corridor and stairs are clearly presented, and the transparent window openings and hollow grilles allow the internal spatial hierarchy to naturally emerge, enhancing the sense of "transparent enclosure" space;
Courtyard Water Scenery: Simulate mirrored water surfaces and winding corridors, paired with pavilions, steps, and vegetation, to restore the garden atmosphere of "small bridges flowing water"; Smooth the water surface and add warm ambient lighting to make the static scene more dynamic;
Landscape vegetation: Adopting a layered landscaping method, micro trees, shrubs, and ornamental grasses are paired with colorful foliage plants to enrich the visual hierarchy, balance the ruggedness of the building, and convey the natural charm of Chinese gardens.
3. Atmosphere creation and detail polishing
The lighting system adopts a layered design with artistic conception: warm white light strips are embedded in the eaves and corridors of the building to outline the contours of traditional architecture; The courtyard water features and pavilions are embellished with warm light, creating a peaceful and elegant nighttime atmosphere; Local transparent areas are set with internal light transmission to create light and shadow interaction between the building and the garden, enhancing the immersive experience of "having a garden in the courtyard". Reinforce vulnerable parts such as the edges and corners of the model to ensure that it is not easily deformed or peeled off during long-term display.
4. Finished product optimization and delivery guarantee
After completing the basic production, comprehensively adjust the overall color, flatness, and firmness of the model to ensure that all details are exquisite and neat. In response to display requirements, the model is equipped with an integrated anti slip base, which is convenient for handling and display, while also protecting the model structure. The finished product has undergone multiple stability and transportation tests and can be directly used on the ground. It is suitable for various display scenarios such as exhibition halls and conference rooms, and supports ocean transportation and overseas landing display.
