Ground-Level Landscape and Greenbelt Integration
Redefining the Urban-Nature Interface
This human-centered landscape design reconfigures the relationship between architecture and the city. Perimeter setbacks create generous pedestrian paths and green buffers, while a prominent corner retreat forms a layered 鈥淕reen Corner Commons鈥 with canopy trees, seating, and planting鈥攅nhancing microclimate, urban porosity, and street-level vitality.
Aligned with the UN SDGs, the design employs low-carbon materials, native species, and high green coverage to boost carbon sequestration and biodiversity. Permeable surfaces and stormwater retention systems enhance climate resilience, positioning landscape as vital green infrastructure rather than surface treatment.
Drawing from Tianmu鈥檚 natural terrain and Huangxi Stream ecology, the spatial composition integrates water elements and multi-layered planting to create a forest-like, therapeutic environment鈥攅mbedding sustainability into the everyday urban experience.
