HID Landscape Architecture
中國(China)
HID Landscape Architecture, established in Suzhou Industrial Park in 2015, has rapidly emerged as one of China's most innovative landscape design practices, synthesizing Eastern philosophical principles with contemporary design methodologies. Under the leadership of principals Wu Hao and Zhang Lu, the firm has developed a distinctive approach to spatial composition that transcends traditional disciplinary boundaries.
The practice's design philosophy is anchored in what they term "spatial logic of modern life," a framework that integrates site-specific environmental conditions with cultural narratives. This methodology has been evident in their portfolio of works spanning public realms, cultural landscapes, and urban interventions across China.
HID's rigorous design process emphasizes three key components: comprehensive site analysis, iterative design development, and meticulous construction oversight. Their integrated approach to landscape architecture encompasses everything from initial conceptual studies through to detailed implementation, ensuring design integrity at every scale.
The firm's commitment to environmental stewardship is reflected in their sustainable design strategies, which prioritize native species selection, water-sensitive urban design, and adaptive reuse of existing site elements. Currently headquartered in Suzhou's vibrant design district, HID's team of 45 professionals continues to push the boundaries of contemporary landscape architecture while remaining deeply rooted in Chinese cultural context.
