松境度假莊園坐落于浙江一處全圍合的小山谷之中,背靠屏風山,周圍松林環抱,是一座由一棟紅酒室和僅三棟全景客房組成的微型精品莊園。松境是我們為Anadu設計的第二家高端隱世的度假村,沿用第一家Anadu度假莊園(Anadu Resort)“在自然中找到自我”(Find yourself in nature)的座右銘,無論從規劃還是建筑設計的角度,我們都希望發揮這座山谷獨特的松林景色,回應場地自然印記,打造更極致的獨屬于松境的隱居體驗。于是建筑群順應山谷肌理依勢而建,每棟建筑布局朝向因景而異,與地形連接各不相同,并都擁有獨特的景觀視野,人們可以在谷地清風中開啟沉浸式度假之旅。
Anadu Pine Villa | A Contemporary Sanctuary with Just Three Guest Rooms
Anadu Pine Villa is situated in a secluded valley, a two-hour drive from Shanghai, enveloped by pine forests and shielded by a mountain draped in bamboo. This boutique estate comprises just three elegantly designed guest suites, each with panoramic views, complemented by a refined wine and cigar bar. In line with Anadu's philosophy of "Find yourself in nature," our objective—from planning to architectural design—is to showcase the unique beauty of the valley's pine forests. We aim to harmonize with the natural landscape, creating an unparalleled retreat experience exclusive to Pine Villa. The buildings are thoughtfully positioned along the valley's contours, each oriented to capture unique views. Guests are invited to embrace the gentle valley breeze as they embark on their journey to tranquility.
At the entrance, a bamboo-textured concrete and charred black wood "L"-shaped gate harmoniously merges with the landscape, welcoming guests with open arms—embracing the valley’s greenery on one side and inviting visitors on the other. As they drive along the pine-lined road, they arrive at the wine and cigar bar, featuring a distinctive four-sided sloped roof. This building also serves as the reception center, offering guest services, drinks and snacks, and tastings of fine wine and cigars.
Originally, an abandoned old house stood where the wine house now sits. To honor the site's history, the new building echoes the old structure’s gabled roof, redesigned into a four-sloped form that creates a harmonious, tranquil scale from every angle. The main entrance is located on the southwest side, where the massing gradually opens from exterior to interior. The building is pided into two sections: the cigar lounge on the left, enclosed and seamlessly connected to the roof, and the reception area on the right, where the roof appears to float above the mass, allowing natural light to filter in. The double-edged shadow line details along the roof’s eaves serve both functional and aesthetic purposes, managing dripping water while softening the roofline’s sharp tension.
After passing through the relatively enclosed functional spaces, the interior opens entirely. The minimalist, warm material palette features custom wooden furniture and light wood ceiling panels that follow the roof’s form. The slope softens towards the windows, with black flat ceilings extending outdoors, creating a generous shaded space that connects the building with a small plaza facing the pine forest. In pleasant weather, glass doors can be fully opened to integrate the plaza into the indoor space. The walls are entirely glass, maximizing the views, while the northeast dining area faces a quieter hillside, and the semi-enclosed lounge provides a more private atmosphere.
A curved bamboo-textured wall leads guests from the wine house to the guest area, where the hard ground transitions into soft gravel paths, evoking a vacation atmosphere. At the path’s end, a small plaza provides a moment of pause before entering the guest area, enhancing the sense of seclusion. The three minimal standalone structures sit quietly in the valley, surrounded by the forest. Facing staggered walls that obscure the rear of the space, guests are invited to imagine what lies beyond.
As guests walk through the courtyard and winding paths, they experience a series of mysterious moments before reaching the guest rooms. Upon entering, the view dramatically opens up—two concrete slabs face the valley with no obstructions. The interior flows seamlessly with 270-degree panoramic views, offering a fully immersive experience. The rooms are embraced by nature on three sides, each framing its own unique view.
To keep the structure minimal, the buildings are cast from exposed concrete with integrated beams and embedded piping, ensuring no visible ceiling beams, lighting fixtures, or suspended structures. The clean concrete slabs unify the space. The floor slab floats above the valley, respecting and connecting with the terrain, while appearing to hover above it. Between the two concrete slabs, only the serene pine valley is in sight.
Local wood elements soften the raw concrete, supporting parts of the structure and carrying pipes, while adding a warm touch to the otherwise sleek, minimal space. Skylights and well-placed windows allow natural light to flow through, creating a balance of openness and privacy. The level floors ensure a smooth transition between indoor and outdoor spaces, while the sunken soaking tub, designed and cast into the structure, connects to the ground, offering a tranquil retreat.
Although the interior is pided into living, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom areas, the spaces flow organically. Multifunctional corner furniture serves various parts of the room, connecting the spaces naturally. At the corner of the bathroom, handcrafted brick storage walls wrap around to form a vanity, creating a unique design transition while adding a touch of charm. Walnut furniture complements the exterior views, immersing guests in the natural surroundings. The lighting is thoughtfully layered, from recessed lights to wall sconces, pendant lights, and table lamps, creating a warm, tranquil atmosphere.
Through the glass doors, each room opens onto a private backyard in the pine forest. The eaves extend into a shaded area, blending the indoors with nature. Every guest room has its own floating outdoor deck, offering a further connection to the valley. The landscape design softens the boundaries between the estate and its surroundings, using native valley plants to integrate seamlessly into the environment. Discreet lighting, resembling fireflies, dots the pathways and grounds, enhancing the serene, secluded atmosphere.
The estate’s design balances privacy with openness, providing a joyful and surprising spatial experience. With just one valley and three exclusive retreats, whether for a gathering with friends or a solo escape, the serene power of the pine forest and the architectural simplicity create a harmonious connection. The buildings quietly retreat into the landscape, offering a peaceful, secluded getaway.The entire estate unfolds from solid form to open space, from privacy to fluidity, and from architecture to nature. Through the interplay of solid and void, we create a delightful and surprising spatial experience. From the building’s massing to the interior spaces, the design is seamless, with no unnecessary embellishments. By carefully considering the “bones” of the space, we lay a foundation for high-quality interiors. The result is a unique, boundary-less retreat in the pine forest, where both the architecture and the human experience are immersed in the tranquility of nature. We truly value the synergy between architecture and interior design. We believe that when the structure, density, and scale of a building are carefully considered—the "bone structure"—the quality of the interior space will naturally reveal its lasting value, without the need for excessive decorations.
