GREEN & BLUE INFRASTRUCTURE
Brook The brook is the main entrance for the commercial district . The scale is purposefully narrowed down to form the alley space of the old Shanghai . We abstractly extract the natural element of “ stream flowing in the valley ” to design the encircling cascade water flowing device . The cascade planting of the waterfall and cantilever forms an artistic installation for the main entrance . The falling angles can satisfy appreciation demands from four directions . This can not only highlight the recognizability of the project but also improve the artistic perception of the whole district . An art exhibition hall full of business vigor is created on the front part of this project .
Mountain A tropical rainforest is adopted to form the view of the main flow line . The population flow is guided to the right . The stepping stones floating on the water surface of the tropical rainforest are reserved for visitors to experience going through the mountain . The mountain features small space
