WUHAN: HERE WE WANT EVERYTHING: VIEWS,
WATER, ORIENTATION, LANDSCAPE, DENSITY,
LIKE IN BABYLON
Wuhan, P.R. China
VIEWS:
recognizing that the desired orientation
of the residential units is South and
the best views to the lake face east and
west, the project is organized with residential
bands that oscillate to produce multiple
views to the desired orientations.
WATER: we propose to create water canals
that run east-west to create a connection
between the two shores of the lake and
promote many opportunities for all residents
to be near the water and have water related
activities.
ORIENTATION: most of the units will have
two orientations to take advantage of
the existing surroundings.
LANDSCAPE: landscaped areas will run along
the water canals and especial outdoor
recreational activities, always culminating
along the east and west shores of the
lake.
DENSITY: based of the specific requirements
for F.A.R. we are proposing the following
F.A.R per phase:
EXISTING VEGETATION: we intend to preserve
most of the existing trees by creating
holes in the residential bands to let
the trees pass through. When the trees
intersect the water canals we will create
small islands that can be used for recreational
activities by the residents.
