Wuhan Liantou Center is a high-end residential development along the edge of the Yangtze River. Phase One of the project focuses on the display area, which houses the sales office and introduces potential residents to a sequenced, experiential tour of this forthcoming residential retreat.

The landscape design harmoniously integrates with the building’s architectural style while incorporating detailed elements representative of the river and the mountains. Upon arrival to the display area motor court, visitors are welcomed with a fountain view and art wall shaped as if carved by the river. Once in the courtyard, a stroll through the glass-enclosed foyer provides peaceful views to stone gardens and a reflection pool garden with quiet indoor and outdoor seating areas.
