Half-Mountain Cloud Station / Qing Studio + Li Nu
Located at the foot of Nankun Mountain in Huizhou, Guangdong, Half-Mountain Cloud Station serves as a key node in the "Two-Mountain Architectural Art Program". Inspired by Su Dongpo's "Sixteen Joys of Life in Huizhou", specifically the verse "viewing mountains after rain from a tower", the project responds poetically to the delicate tensions between city and nature, memory and future. Nestled within a mountainous forest, three lightweight constructions pose three quiet questions to the landscape. These constructions neither occupy the center nor dominate the height, rather, they find their own order within fault lines, crevices, and along the shifting path, transforming topographical undulations into a rhythm of space. The three constructions—Mountain Post, Hometown Pavilion, and Cloud Pavilion—are like gentle knocks on the door of time, initiating a dialogue spanning millennia and a journey cradled by nature.
