HILLSTATE YEONGTONG - Apartment Complex

HILLSTATE YEONG-TONG is the apartment complex construction project which was completed in 2017. The complex was built in a large ground where used for arable land & residential houses, turning to the ecological apartment complex of 2,140 units with 46,497m2 of green area.

In terms of Landscape, we focused on 3 concepts – Tradition, Child-friendly and Tree walk.

The site is located in Suwon, a Korean typical traditional city, where is famous for its old castle wall and pine trees (with evergreen leaves & tall shape, pine tree has been treated precious species through the Korean history). Thus, we introduced big pine trees into the complex as main planting species, simply representing the regional meaning and ecologically healthy for the regional climate system. Rock garden in the main green space also represents familiar Korean scenes on old wash drawing paintings, which shows the mountains and hills of Korea wild nature. Some elements from traditional gardens, such as layout – water – rocks, are being transformed with the contemporary design languages, to small unique gardens.

The landscape design stimulates children’s activities in the complex, proposing a various programs in a various places. On a large lawn space, kids can do kite flying, Frisbee passing, catch ball and snow sledging. 7m wide road inside the complex provides a place for bicycle and off road skating. 5 big playgrounds built on different theme is perfect for children who are seeking for adventure, tale story & social activities. Moreover, outdoor sports utilities offers a place for more specialized work out plays.

You can walk more than 1.8 km only inside the site without any threat of car accident. Emphasizing daily walk, we put various trees, shrubs & flowers along the trail which shows the seasonal changes with its leaves, fruits & flowers. More than 4,800 nos of trees with 28 different species are planted on the site. Plus, 340,000 shrubs of 19 species and 300,000 nos of various herbs & flowers are spread all around the trails & site. These plantings form small village forests located in front of each apartment buildings, also a bosket surrounding the large opened green space.
