The design concept for this mixed-use residential building emphasizes urban integration, modern functionality, and a connection to nature. The architecture features a dynamic façade with alternating materials, such as white stucco, wood cladding, and expansive glass panels, creating a rhythm that is both contemporary and inviting. Large balconies and terraces provide private outdoor spaces, enhancing the quality of life for residents and allowing for vertical greenery, while also fostering a visual connection to the surrounding urban environment.
The structure balances density with openness, incorporating stepped terraces and rooftop gardens to soften its urban scale and blend with neighboring developments. Ground-floor spaces are designed to accommodate retail or community functions, contributing to a vibrant streetscape. Overall, the concept seeks to harmonize residential comfort with sustainable urban living by integrating greenery, natural light, and communal spaces into the design.
The elevation of the building is a harmonious blend of modern materials and thoughtful articulation, creating a dynamic and visually engaging façade. Vertical and horizontal lines dominate the composition, with a rhythmic interplay of white stucco panels, warm wood cladding, and expansive glass elements. The use of recessed and protruding balconies adds depth and texture to the elevation, while the integration of glass railings ensures a sleek and contemporary aesthetic.
