This thesis started with studying Shanshui paintings (traditional Chinese painting method) with the purpose of translating desirable qualities from paintings to contemporary Chinese architecture. Over time, Chinese architecture has been influenced by western architecture and has gradually lost the deep logic of embracing nature in architectural spaces.
