Songyang Jiushe Hidden Gem

The architectural highlights of Songyang Jiushe are mainly reflected in the following aspects: Blending regional characteristics with natural landscapes • Preserving traditional colors: Retains the original earthy yellow tones of Songyang's rammed earth houses, where the blue-tiled roofs and yellow walls complement the blue sky, white clouds, and surrounding village houses, seamlessly integrating into the local environment. • Framing natural views: Located on a mountainside at an altitude of 800 meters, surrounded by bamboo forests and tea fields, the buildings are terraced along the mountain, echoing the natural scenery and allowing guests to fully immerse in the rustic mountain atmosphere. Mixing diverse design styles • Japanese and Nordic fusion: Combines Kyoto-style Japanese aesthetics with Nordic minimalism, pairing old wooden beams and columns with floor-to-ceiling glass walls to create a restrained yet sophisticated ambiance, blending Japanese Zen refinement with Nordic simplicity and openness. Thoughtful spatial planning • Spacious communal areas: After two and a half years of meticulous design, only 8 guest rooms were created, with the remaining space dedicated to public areas such as a classic-style lobby, Zen tea room, open-air viewing deck, and infinity pool, providing ample space for relaxation and socializing. • Varied room layouts: The 8 guest rooms start from 60㎡, featuring options like duplex lofts, Japanese-style suites, and standalone villas, each with a unique layout to cater to different guest preferences. Selection of natural and modern materials • Extensive use of wood: Incorporates reclaimed timber in the structure, with oak furniture emitting a natural fragrance. Some rooms retain original wooden pillars, evoking a warm, rustic, and Zen-like atmosphere. • Complemented by glass and stone: Floor-to-ceiling glass walls bring mountain views indoors, while stone is used for flooring and steps, enhancing the building's texture and stability. Smart and comfortable amenities • Smart home system: In-room lighting, curtains, underfloor heating, and air conditioning can be controlled via bedside iPads. Smart toilets and mattresses further enhance convenience and comfort. • Private soaking tubs: Each room is equipped with a private soaking tub, some of which are open-air, allowing guests to unwind while enjoying views of the mountain village or lush bamboo forests.
