What's it like to retreat to Suzhou? With its whitewashed walls and black tiles, flowing water, and the sounds of tea and pingtan, time seems to slow down here, leaving behind the hustle and bustle of life and allowing for a sense of tranquility and freedom. At Yingfeng Yayuan in Suzhou's Old Town district, Franz has innovatively installed a semi-circular elevator within the quaint villa, bringing a touch of brilliance to everyday life.

Garden Landscaping·Jiangnan Villa

Yingfeng Yayuan, named after the motto "near Yingfeng Bridge Lane, an elegant residence," has been reborn, and the owners have lived up to this exceptional location, transforming the villa into a miniature Suzhou garden. Verandas edge the flowing water, while flowers and trees nestle against the rocks. People walk amidst the scenery, while fish swim amidst the painting, creating a truly captivating experience, evoking the sentiment, "People say I live in the city, yet I wonder if I'm nestled among the mountains."

Within the mansion, doors and windows are utilized to maximize the landscape. "The windows embrace the mountain scenery on all sides, real and artificial mountains intertwine and rise." The antique window lattices focus and frame the villa's landscape, recreating a poetic and picturesque scene within a single vantage point. Dappled light and shadows continuously flow through the doors and windows, reflecting the passage of time. The garden and villa are completely melted into a landscape painting.

Colliding with tradition and inheriting the modern

How can a smart elevator harmoniously integrate with traditional living in this quaint mansion? Franz, rather than falling into the trap of outdated thinking, overturned the traditionalist traditions of Chinese homes with a vibrant golden color. The spiral staircase, like a golden dragon, cuts a dazzling line of light through the dark screen window panes, bringing a touch of modern vitality and passion.

Surrounded by a spiral staircase, Franz chose a classic sightseeing elevator, creating a fusion of tradition and modernity, Chinese and Western styles. The transparent, open cabin allows family members to enjoy the panoramic views of the villa as they ascend and descend, creating a changing scene with each step and adding a sense of layering and richness to the landscape. The lightweight yet sturdy aluminum alloy structure protects life while bringing a fresh perspective.

Semi-circular elevator · innovative aesthetics

To optimize the space, Franz designed the observation elevator car into a semicircular shape, cleverly merging with the spiral staircase. The car floor is adorned with a vibrant marble pattern, which reflects the texture of golden nanmu wood under the light and shadow. Combined with the champagne-gold frame, it creates a palatial, regal and elegant experience. This is another facet of the traditional Chinese concept of understated seclusion, highlighting the owner's powerful and rich inner world.

While innovating in design, Franz utilizes advanced technology to create elevators that provide a smooth and safe travel experience. Traction-type drive technology ensures quiet operation, ensuring your family's rest even when returning home late. Precision shock-absorbing devices ensure safety and comfort. The use of permanent magnet synchronous mainframe technology ensures efficient and low-energy operation, allowing it to be fully powered by household electrical circuits and making maintenance more convenient and quick.

Strolling in the garden to enjoy the scenery, holding private gatherings, sitting quietly and thinking deeply... Wandering in the garden villa, thanks to Franz's ingenious layout, whether you are alone or in a group, you can feel the fashionable side behind the classics. The simplicity and prosperity can coexist so harmoniously. This is Franz's wisdom and the dialectical thought that has been embedded in the genes of the Chinese for thousands of years.
