MLA+亩加

Based in Shenzhen, MLA+亩加 designs coastal districts and large-scale urban master plans characterized by continuous terraced green roofs, sweeping elevated bridge structures, and floating curved volumes that blur the boundaries between architecture and landscape. This work provides a strong reference when detailing multi-tiered vegetated podiums, integrating civic leisure amenities within active infrastructure, or configuring expansive semi-outdoor public shelters for complex mixed-use environments.

An exterior precedent showing how rural adaptive reuse or agricultural master planning integrates varied building typologies with a strong foreground agricultural landscape.

What we like about this project
A sleek glass-wrapped cylindrical tower rises unexpectedly beside traditional pitched-roof granary volumes.

Geometry
Low-slung rural complex arranged linearly behind a vast agricultural foreground, featuring varied roof profiles including pitched tile, barrel vaults, and a cylindrical observation tower.
Facade system
Stucco walls with punched rectangular windows interspersed with metal and glass elements.
Structural guess
Load-bearing masonry and steel frames with concrete foundations.
Spatial scale
Human-scaled rural building complex spanning across a wide horizontal landscape panorama.
Lighting
Overcast daylight casting soft, diffused illumination across the yellow field and white building facades.
Atmosphere
Calm, expansive agricultural serenity contrasting against clean white and dark metal architectural volumes.
Environmental context
Rural agricultural setting with an expansive foreground crop field and open sky.
Spatial experience
Approached across an open agricultural plane, the compound presents a rhythmic composition of vernacular-inspired and modern industrial volumes.
Composition rhythm
Horizontal spread punctuated by vertical elements like the observation tower and repeated roof vaults.
