In Guangzhou, this mixed-use development brings together landscape, retail, and hospitality through a multi-level public realm that connects the site from street to rooftop.
At grade, grand corner plazas guide movement through the development, where informal clusters of trees soften the geometry of the paving and create moments of pause. Key entry points are marked by Delonix trees, drawing visitors toward vertical connections and the elevated garden above.
Three stories up, the podium becomes an extension of the public realm—shaded, planted, and activated by outdoor seating that blurs the line between interior and exterior. A sculptural skylight anchors the space, while bamboo screens, planters, and integrated artwork create a more intimate garden environment.
A consistent material and planting palette ties both levels together, reinforcing a seamless spatial experience from street to rooftop.
