Five sisters
They look similar, yet they are all different: five sisters, five white villas lined up on the shore of Dongqian Lake in China. After Portuguese architects Álvaro Siza Vieira and Carlos Castanheira had already completed the Huamao Museum of Art Education on the site, they now followed up with the completion of five abstract residential buildings. By using the synonym ‘sisters’, the architects emphasise the independence of the buildings and their unity as an ensemble.
Álvaro Siza Vieira
One of the most important contemporary European architects about the new-build project Dongqian Lake Club Houses in Ningbo, China:
"Architecture is something that changes the landscape, and from this point of view its significance for life in the city, it should be considered."
