Oakridge Park
An aerial master plan precedent illustrating how multiple curved high-rise towers can integrate seamlessly with extensive parklands and podium gardens in a dense urban setting.
- What we like about this project
- Continuous landscaped roof terraces weave across the interconnected podiums, bridging separate tower footprints.

- Geometry
- An organic cluster of slender, curved, and undulating high-rise towers rises from an integrated podium system embedded within an extensive green parkland network.
- Facade system
- Curtain wall glazing combined with sweeping balconies and articulated vertical fins.
- Structural guess
- Concrete core and flat slab construction with perimeter column grids accommodating complex curved profiles.
- Spatial scale
- Macro urban scale showing multiple high-rise residential towers ranging between twenty and forty stories.
- Lighting
- Bright late-afternoon sunlight casts long shadows across the towers and landscape, highlighting the curved facade contours against the distant mountain backdrop.
- Atmosphere
- Optimistic, expansive, and green-focused urban resort feeling.
- Environmental context
- Suburban and low-rise urban context surrounding a densely treed park site, with a major city skyline and snow-capped mountains in the distant background.
- Spatial experience
- The composition creates a dense urban node that balances high-rise living with continuous, sprawling ground-level green spaces and pedestrian pathways.
- Composition rhythm
- Dynamic cluster of organic tower forms varying in height and orientation, anchored by continuous green podiums.
