Softness from Water, toughness from Dao

Man and city and nature together constitute an organic organism. Urban construction is the result of the interaction of human wisdom and natural environment. The rational integration of artificial and natural design is the core issue of architectural design. Zhang Bi, a painter of Tang Dynasty, said that "the creation of a foreign teacher is the source of our hearts". "Learning from nature and doing manual work" can become a way to camp city. Taking this as a lesson, "Soft when meeting water, rigid when meeting Tao" has become the design concept of our incubator in Chongming Intelligence Island, Shanghai. Soft when meeting water and road, it is flexible and flexible. It shows that architectural design should adopt different strategies in dealing with the external natural and artificial environment.
