本案原本为一个百年历史的，极具古韵特色的私家园林，由于当地的发展变迁，此园林被遗忘在山水之间十多年了，无人居住修缮，经过风吹日晒已经破旧，十分可惜。业主在接手此园林的时希望将其改造成一家酒店，发挥商业价值；在与业主沟通交流后，了解了本案的地理位置处于风景区，游客流量较大，综合各种因素，我们设计团队决定打造一个吻合江南民俗文化但又不失现代感的精品民宿酒店，让这座历史古园在新时代焕发新生机，并将原名“后乐书院”更名为“天平·南园”（山脚南麓，背靠天平山）。生长在山水林木中的“天平南园”少有尘嚣，它是天平山景区的一部分。据史记载，唐朝时这里已经名声很大了，万历年间范仲淹第十七世孙范允临种植380棵植于天平山。后又建天平山庄，亭台楼阁依山而筑，层叠而上，鳞次栉比，山石、池水、花木点缀其间，更现山林之趣，堂前有联云：“门前绿水飞奔下，屋里青山跳出来”。

建筑学家童寯先生曾说：“中国园林是一处真实的梦幻佳境，一个小的假想世界。”一山一石、一草一木都寄予着造园者俯察天地、仰观宇宙的情怀，这种雅致静谧的生活是中国人文脉中的基本精神。改造时整体的建筑风格没有进行大刀阔斧的改造，尊重了原本园林设计的初衷，保留建筑原有的符合苏州园林粉墙黛瓦的特点，只在入院处用钢结构和玻璃墙新建了一个现代感较强的接待区，这样不破坏原建筑的古韵，也符合现代审美，而历史与当下这样的对立，在古园的时间轴上形成了极强的节点。我们对酒店的内部风格将以“现代东方美学”理念来呈现。这和苏州的城市名片相呼应，苏州是将古韵旧城和现代化城市结合的很完美的城市，我们可以在山塘街、平江路找到小桥流水，古城静谧;在园区确是高楼林立，都市摩登。

餐厅、茶室、戏台、多功能厅分布于整个园林的景观中，或焚香品茗，或凭栏而望，或临水驻足，穿行于游廊间，仿佛在游历江南名园，古意盎然。其中11间套房我们起了11个名字，也代表着不同的居住体验。“留白”、“探幽”、“方寸”、“万里”、“知春”、“序秋”、“听夏”、“藏冬”、“无为”、“小隐”、“南园”改造后每一间客房都将园林景观引入了室内，智能家居的人文关怀、布草床品的舒适度和各种装饰材质的细节处理是酒店品质的关键。

This case was originally a century-old private garden with ancient charm. Due to local development and changes, this garden has been forgotten in the mountains and rivers for more than ten years. It was uninhabited and repaired, and it has been worn out after the wind and sun. . When the owner took over this garden, he hoped to transform it into a hotel to give full play to its commercial value; after communicating with the owner, he learned that the location of the project is in a scenic area and the flow of tourists is large. Based on various factors, our design team decided Create a boutique hotel that fits the folk culture of Jiangnan but does not lose a sense of modernity, so that this historic garden will be revitalized in the new era, and the original name of "Hou Le Academy" is renamed "Tianping·South Garden" (Southern Foot of the Mountain) , With the back of Tianping Mountain). The "Tianping South Garden", which grows in the mountains, waters and forests, is rarely crowded. It is part of the Tianping Mountain Scenic Area. According to historical records, it was already famous during the Tang Dynasty. During the Wanli period, Fan Zhongyan's 17th Sun Fan Yunlin planted 380 trees in Tianping Mountain. Later, Tianping Villa was built. Pavilions, terraces and pavilions were built against the mountain, cascading up, row upon row, with rocks, ponds, flowers and trees dotted among them, and even more of the mountain and forest. There is a cloud in front of the hall: "The green water in front of the door rushes down, and the house Qingshan jumped out."

The architect Mr. Tong Liao once said: "Chinese gardens are a real dreamland, a small imaginary world." The mountains, rocks, plants, and trees all entrust the gardener's feelings of looking at the world and looking up at the universe. This kind of elegant and quiet life is the basic spirit of Chinese culture. During the renovation, the overall architectural style was not drastically remodeled. It respected the original intention of the original garden design and retained the original characteristics of the building in line with the pink walls and tiles of Suzhou gardens. Only the steel structure and glass walls were newly built in the hospital with a modern feel. The strong reception area does not destroy the ancient charm of the original building and is also in line with the modern aesthetics. The opposition between history and the present forms a strong node on the time axis of the ancient garden. Our interior style of the hotel will be presented with the concept of "modern oriental aesthetics". This echoes the city card of Suzhou. Suzhou is a perfect city that combines the ancient charm of the old city with the modern city. We can find small bridges and flowing water on Shantang Street and Pingjiang Road. The ancient city is quiet; there are indeed tall buildings in the park. modern.

The restaurant, tea room, stage, and multi-function hall are distributed throughout the landscape of the garden. You can burn incense and taste tea, or lean on a railing, or stop by the water, walking through the verandas, as if you are visiting a famous garden in the south of the Yangtze River. We gave 11 names to 11 suites, which also represent different living experiences. "Liubai", "Explore You", "Fangcun", "Wanli", "Zhichun", "Xuqiu", "Tingxia", "Zangdong", "Wuwei", "Xiaoyin", "Nanyuan" transformation After each guest room, the garden landscape is introduced into the interior. The humanistic care of smart home, the comfort of linen bedding and the detailed treatment of various decorative materials are the key to the quality of the hotel.
