建筑概论在山脊间创造了一套符合地形的中国庭院，追求整洁与自然的平衡，将矫正斧与自由村落布局相结合，而不是固守苏州和汉侯洲建筑所采用的精湛艺术，更多地追求的是一种自然而无拘束的古代观念。

Overview Architects have created a set of Chinese courtyards among mountain ridges by conforming to terrain, sought for the balance between neatness and nature, combined rectified axes with free village layout, instead of sticking to exquisite artistry adopted by buildings in Suzhou and Hanghzou, a natural and unrestrained ancient conception is more pursued.

室内设计通过继承乡土风格，将人与自然之间的对话与感知通过彻底的空间塑造与描绘联系起来。在前期阶段，建筑师们通过对安吉历史风景的理解，将空间界定为实体文学家庭的栖身之所，希望通过采用现代流行的手法来传递榕树的传统气质，从而形成一种宁静、奢华、现代典雅的意境。

By inheriting local style, interior design is aimed at connecting dialogue and perception between man and nature through a thorough spatial shaping and depiction. At the preliminary stage, through comprehending historical scenery in Anji, architects have defined the space as a residence for substantial literary family, expected to deliver the traditional temperament of Banyan Tree by adopting a popular technique in modern times, hence formed an artistic conception of tranquil luxury and contemporary elegance.

大厅是一个方形的四合院。最初，景观轴线从正门向外延伸，从水庭延伸到镜像平台，并进一步连接室外平台上的反射池，最终，游客将被远处不断上升和下降的山脊和水库吸引，并立即感到宁静和开放。

Lobby The lobby is a square quadrangle. Initially, a landscape axis spreads out from the main entrance, water courtyard to mirror platform, and further links reflection pool on the outdoor platform, eventually, guests will be attracted by continuously rising and falling mountain ridges and reservoirs in the distance, and instantly feel tranquil and open.
