The landscape design for Beijing Zhonghaixincheng Changanjiuzhang is rooted in the historic cultural lineage of Chang'an Avenue, blending international aesthetics to create a residential sequence bearing the capital's cultural imprint.

Centered on the Baoxiang Flower motif, the design unfolds through a five-step homecoming sequence across nine themed courtyards. The "Chang'an Summit Splendor" entrance features a hundred-meter ultra-modern gate with a starlight lighting system echoing Chang'an Avenue's vibrancy. Black mountain rocks and ancient pines create a "Twin Peaks Guarding" formation, while the stone gate's jade base and metal Baoxiang Flower bas-relief showcase Beijing craftsmanship. The "Baoxiang Ring Elegance" corridor presents a crescent water basin and arc lighting, crafting the poetic "Moon Reflected on Water Curtain" scene.

The sunken "Layered Peaks Scattered with Gold" reception lounge employs a semi-arc treasure chest design, with skylights illuminating red maples and filigree-inlay doors interpreting the Baoxiang pattern. The children's "Flowing Clouds Adorned with Jade" space draws from palace carpet cloud motifs, featuring Muse Exploration and Monet's Garden zones with psychologically tailored colors. The "Floating Light, Water Mirror" clubhouse uses jade-carved stone surfaces where natural weathering meets geometric cuts, evoking the classical artistic conception of "Quiet Shadow Sinking Jade".

Four inter-residence courtyards complete the system: "Jade Forest Brocade" mimics embroidery textures through micro-topography; "Four Directions Embracing Green" translates lacquer patterns into paving with stone seating; "Rain Mist and Golden Silk" uses stepping stones as embroidery stitches amid golden leaves and mist; "Harmonious Light and Carved Colors" references Qianlong-era lacquerware through tri-color walls conveying longevity.

The design merges Chang'an Avenue's solemnity with high-end residential elegance, forming a culturally rooted, contemporary landscape.
