This project takes typical corporate villas in china as a starting point, while underscoring the tension of hybridizing work and living spaces within the typology as a result of zoning laws and increased center city real estate prices. The accommodation zones are articulated distinctly from the work volumes, but are forcibly inserted into the latter, producing new sectional relationships. The typical patch of green located outside standard corporate villas has here been extended into a larger system that serves to link each villa to create a larger social space. Each villa therefore stands unique and unto itself, whilst being tied into a large community.
