A covered walkway around the scenic area courtyard

At this scenic area in Shangjie District, Zhengzhou, Qingsong Membrane Structures arranged a membrane canopy over the courtyard walkway, leaving a large curved central opening. Taupe membrane sections connect several corners, with the inner edge surrounding the tree and paving and the outer edge beside pitched-roof buildings. The canopy forms a continuous covered route while keeping the centre open to the sky.

Taupe membrane beside the surrounding buildings

The taupe membrane turns around the courtyard perimeter, coordinating with the muted grey roofs and paving. The central paving is clearly distinct from the covered perimeter, and openings connect to external paths, with tree beds and steps shaping movement through the courtyard.

Coordinating drainage and building connections

For a similar scenic area walkway canopy, roof drainage routes, wall connections and cleaning access should be established during design. Corners, trees, doors and windows need to be checked together, coordinating pedestrian routes and connection details within the site layout.
