安徒生的作品反映了其生活和人生旅程，传达了深刻的信息，展现了我们身边的二元对立：真实与想象、自然与人造、人与动物、光与暗……我们的建筑设计就是要通过建筑与景观的形式，来体现这一精髓。There are profound messages in HC Andersen’s writing that reflects the author’s life and his life time journey. Andersen’s work projects the duality of the opposite that surrounds us; real and imaginary, nature and manmade, human and animal, light and dark…Our architectural design is to reflect this essence of his work in architectural and landscape form.
The exhibition spaces are planned underground. The garden above ground is composed with curve linear hedge that traces the exhibition spaces belowground. Here the architectural built form is diminished and visitors would be lead into the “maze” like space created by hedges. Underground world is connected to the garden above through series of sunken garden that appears like a “hole” on the ground, “portal” from fairytale world to the world outside.
