A coastal resort or campus design precedent demonstrating landscape integration through stepped timber volumes and green roofs nested within a pine forest.
- What we like about this project
- Extensive terraced green roofs double as walkable public amenities seamlessly merging with the canopy.

- Geometry
- Low-slung massing integrated into sloping terrain, featuring extensive green roofs and stepped timber-clad volumes overlooking the sea.
- Facade system
- Vertical timber slat screening over large glazed openings.
- Structural guess
- Timber framing with concrete core and foundations.
- Spatial scale
- Large multi-building resort or civic campus scaled against mature pine trees and ocean expanse.
- Lighting
- Soft, diffused daylight with a low sun casting long shadows through the pine forest toward the ocean.
- Atmosphere
- Serene and atmospheric, blending natural timber warmth with the crisp light of a coastal forest.
- Environmental context
- Coastal forest landscape with dense pine trees rolling down to the open sea.
- Spatial experience
- The complex reads as a series of pavilions nestled within the canopy, balancing large civic massing with intimate forest paths.
- Composition rhythm
- Horizontal bands of green roofs and vertical timber fins stepping gradually toward the water.
