This project delves Beyond the surface, exploring the site through a hydrological lens. By understanding the natural water flow and drainage patterns, the project aims to implement storm water management programs. These programs will utilize passive filtration techniques. Beyond this, the design incorporates diverse programs that cater to varied experiences. Users will be guided through various zones, each offering unique activities and interactions. Through this multifaceted approach, the project strives to create a space that is not only aesthetically pleasing and functionally diverse but also environmentally responsible.
