Concept:
The Plan focuses heavily on sustainable design solutions, particularly social sustainability and low energy usage. Located on one of the few remaining green field sites in the heavily populated city, the idea has been to preserve public access around the buildings. Functions such as car parking and retail have been buried in a terraced “hill” with access from the perimeter, allowing free pedestrian flow between the buildings.
The building them self have been organized in a staggered layout preserving views but minimizing solar gain through their orientation. A series of deep horizontal bands and vertical glass fins ensure shading of the façade. Sky gardens located at various intervals up the buildings similarly screened taking the traditional Indonesian rattan as inspiration for creating privacy but ensuring natural ventilation.
