The banks of the crystal clear river are surrounded by lush trees, and residents rest and have fun on the water's edge. Recently, at the corner of the waterfront of Lingyun New Village, Lingyun Street, Xuhui District, a colorful painted wall has become a new highlight of the community, attracting many residents to stop and admire.
The reporter learned that this unique painted work is one of the contents of the "Lingju Cup" public welfare micro-venture capital project "Lingyun Travelogue" of the Lingyun Community Foundation. By exploring the characteristic elements of the 417 block of Lingyun Street, and combining the process of "three olds" to "three new" in the 417 block, the iconic orange and beige colors of Lingyun New Village are used as the main colors, and combined with the changes of the four seasons of Meilong Port, a unique window-opening wall painting art is created.
In the early stage of creation, the project team conducted multi-party research, listened to the opinions and suggestions of residents, and consulted with the person in charge of the neighborhood committee for many times. On this basis, they also invited a team of professors and graduate students from the environmental design major of Shanghai University of Engineering Science to finally determine the painting scheme after on-site actual measurement and site selection and scheme planning and design.
During the painting process, the painting team also selected special waterproof and anti-fade pigments according to the gritty wall texture, and used multi-layer transparent topcoat painting technology to ensure the stability and durability of the painting.
Today, this painted wall has become a symbol of the aesthetics of life in Lingyun New Village. It vividly depicts the changing scenery of Lingyun New Village in the changing seasons, where residents of different ages live and work in peace and contentment, and the soft auspicious clouds are dotted in between, and the whole picture conveys a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere.
"We hope to let more residents know about the community they live in through wall painting, further build a community culture in the new era, and build a more beautiful and harmonious ecological home." The relevant person in charge of the Lingyun Travelogue project said that in the future, the project team will further expand its creative scope, display the community civilization norms in the form of paintings, and create a more harmonious and beautiful living environment.
