Xiangmi Park Competition

Shenzhen, China

Shenzhen City Government

The masterplan for Xiangmi park sees the creation of nine inter-connected precincts; each with a major theme and function. 

Together they form a strong and cohesive urban parkland that creates passive and active recreation opportunities for all ages and all types of people.

Wherever possible the existing planning, architecture and landscape – including existing building footprints, glasshouse structures and significant connections – are retained, refurbished or retro-fitted to emphasise and celebrate the cultural uses of the past. These are built upon to create a new park which is respectful of its past but looking to the future. 

The new Xiangmi Park will be a wonderful place where the relationships between humans and their world are showcased in an integrated, cultural, ecological, interactive and entertaining experience.
