对地积比率的要求为0.64，严重限制了该土地的规划和分区。在此基础上，如何保持传统城市肌理在这种局限下的延续，是一个巨大的挑战。设计师希望它不仅仅是一个居住社区，也是一个具有艺术精神的多功能社区。

The requirement of 0.64 on plot ratio heavily limited the planning and zoning of the site. Upon that, how to keep the traditional urban texture continue with such limitation was a big challenge. The designer wanted it to be more than just a residential community, but also a multi-functional neighborhood with artistic spirits.

尽管别墅区的景观设计，有一个领先的花园位于入口作为一个独立的看法。这座位于西侧的花园为传统的园林体验提供了一种可能。人们通过这个花园进入这个街区。走在这条路上的风景如画的风景中，人们可以为建筑带来一种真正的诗意。

Despite the landscape design in the villa area, there is a leading garden located at the entrance as an independent view. This garden on the west side provides a possibility for a traditional garden experience. People enters this neighbourhood through this garden. While walking through this picturesque landscape on the path, people can get a real poetic mood for the architecture.

设计小组不想用假山之类的标志性物品来强迫游客留下传统的印象，而是想要空间来表达自己。正是自然的古典空间和美，增强了传统的氛围。

Instead of forcing the impression of tradition on visitors with some iconic items like rockery, the design group wants the space to speak for itself. It is the classical space and beauty of nature that enhanced the traditional atmosphere.

白墙是南方传统建筑的重要特征之一。在古素阿里斯托别墅中，白色墙在其外观中起着重要的作用。这是最佳的画布阴影和灯光发挥他们的魔术为观众，并提供一个诗意和平的环境。但它也使得制造不容易。为了保持漆层光滑，石材废料被研磨成粉末，并与裂缝封口机混合。

White wall is one of the most important features of traditional southern architecture. In Gusu aristo villa, the white wall plays an important role in the appearance. It is the best canvas for shadows and lights to work their magic for the audience, and gives a poetic and peaceful environment. But it also made the manufacture not easy. To keep the finish layer smooth, the stone waste was grounded into powder and mixed with crack-sealer.

在主墙上，我们选择了葡萄牙白色的砂岩。另一方面，考虑到防水保温、成本控制、长期维护等一系列问题，最终将接缝改为胶水。

For the main walls, we chose Portuguese white sandstone. On the other hand, a series of problems such as waterproof and heat preservation, cost control and long-term maintenance were taken into account, so the final seam method was changed to glue.

屋顶有非常特殊的弧度。为了制造屋顶，我们用钛锌板代替了屋顶瓦，以形成轻盈、优雅的外观。此外，与传统的屋瓦相比，这种具有立缝系统的钛锌板本身在防水和保温方面较好。

The roof has a very specific radian. For the manufacture of the roof, we replaced roof tiles with titanium zinc plate in order to create a lightsome and elegant look. Besides, compared to the traditional roof tiles, this titanium zinc plate itself with standing seam system is better at waterproof and heat preservation.
