DESCRIPTION

Design for a public plaza within the urban development of Angus Technopolis, a new business and residential quarter. The project is framed by a lush green lawn and offers a variety of terrace spaces for all the ground floor commerces. Undulating topography creates green pockets welcoming unique biodiversity and is characterized by a dense planting of American Aspen (Populus tremuloïdes). Inspired by a typical forest regeneration landscape, these green pockets provide shade and cool air for the fast-growing vegetation. The plaza also includes a hard surface with hexagonal pavers, long benches, lighting and bike racks.
