Ecology Spine - Urban Connector


Ecology Spine offers a new dimension of experiencing nature with various activities within the proposed Urban Hub, such as walking, cycling, dining and leisure. Not only that it serves as a mode of linkage, it is also an element to restore the soul of the development from busy and fragmented contemporary life to a comfortable, robust and relaxing environment.

 
A fresh perspective is given to the landscape, where it is seen not only as a form of ornament but as a living organism that feels, grows and changes one's experience. It is about creating a place for people; not just to pass through or to sit within, but to entice and draw the users to always come back. The vision of making a modern city of quality, green and convenient living inspired by culture and nature gives birth to an organic city structured by a well-articulated order.
 

Interweaving the landscape with its surrounding architecture is not just about being green, conserving and connecting people with nature, rather it is rooted within the context and spirit of the area as a place to congregate and meet, shop, work, relax and to hold celebrations and take part in cultural events, concerts, festivals, education sessions and emerging artistic exhibitions. It is a place to take part in and be a part of its making.

 

The landscape is utilised as connective element throughout and beyond the whole development, bringing different spaces and elements together, making the development accessible and user-friendly for the benefit of all. The idea recognises the significance of crucial green connection and intends to tap into the feeling of continuity by integrating a comfortable and safe moving experience within the development's fabric, revealing its culture and getting in touch with nature.
