GREEN & BLUE INFRASTRUCTURE
The iconic multi-level landscape is subtly inspired by “ the phenomenon of river ” reflecting the site context . It is the journey of water that “ flows ” from the upper terrace to the Ground . The story begins once the resident approach to the garden . There are three major elements : iconic lawn , water feature , and garden path . The water feature cascades down from the upper level as a welcome element creating a sense of discovery and auditory .
The water cascade is well designed in relation to the slope of the walkway planned for handicapped , elderly , and pedestrians to walk to the top . Either going up or walking down , a water feature is the key element along the walkway . Inspired by the phenomenon of the river , the water movements therefore conceptually generate the design framework , from the gravitational force of the tidal wave , the water ripple , to the mesmerizing water flow .
Captivated by the unique composition of landscape design elements , the experiences of the main garden are enclosed yet contrast with its surroundings inviting the residents to the journey in the garden . The landscape design features the multi-leveled landscape composing a series of water features , landforms , pathways with universal design , and feature pavilions . Human senses are motivated by the design elements such as water features ( sense of auditory ), grass meadows ( sense of touch ), and a variety of plants ( sense of sight ).
