An aerial precedent for biophilic urban design, featuring a multi-tiered structural pavilion layered with lush planting, cascading stairs, and atmospheric mist.
- What we like about this project
- Artificial mist weaving through the intermediate tiers, blurring the boundary between architecture and landscape.

- Geometry
- Central multi-tiered terraced structure with branching columns rising from a paved plaza, surrounded by undulating low-rise pavilions with curved rooflines.
- Facade system
- Open-air terraced planters with vertical metal railings wrapping each level.
- Structural guess
- Steel framing with branching composite columns supporting stepped cantilevered floor plates.
- Spatial scale
- Large-scale public plaza with a multi-story central pavilion accommodating human-scale walkways and staircases.
- Lighting
- Bright ambient daylight casting soft shadows, with artificial mist diffusing across the upper tiers.
- Atmosphere
- Lively yet ethereal, combining dense natural greenery with dynamic microclimatic misting.
- Environmental context
- Dense urban plaza surrounded by contemporary commercial or civic mid-rise structures.
- Spatial experience
- A dense urban public realm unfolds vertically through stepped garden terraces, creating interconnected outdoor rooms at multiple levels.
- Composition rhythm
- Concentric and stepped floor plates repeating upward on branching vertical supports.
