About us
Our project, Unico, is a modern countryside community located in the scenic hills of Chicheng, just three hours from Beijing. Inspired by international models like Soho Farmhouse and Serenbe, Unico combines rural living with creative design, sustainable farming, and high-quality amenities.
We are building a vibrant village of families, educators, and creators, where neighbours share resources, children grow up close to nature, and cultural exchange is encouraged. The community includes boutique hotels, communal spaces, farmland, and learning programs for children.
At the heart of Unico is our belief that education begins early and is best nurtured in a supportive, natural environment. We welcome passionate educators who want to contribute their expertise while experiencing a unique chapter of countryside life in China.
