SIERRA SATHORN
In the fast-growing urbanization, characterized by the absence of public green spaces and low living quality, Sierra Sathorn envisions the future of urban living.Ideally, it is beyond one project’s capacity to tackle the city’s urbanization problems, however, the design team plans to maximize capacity of its landscape thereby setting new design standards for high-rise development project in Thailand. The project proposes a prototype that promotes the concept of urban terrarium. The terrarium solutions will balance the need to achieve financial goals and enhance human health and well-being. This concept redefines human-nature relationship in natural built environments which cherish natural ecosystem services to promote sustainable design for resident’s high living quality. Moreover, the notion of this project will create positive ripple effects to the new future development for private sector’s green network. The urban terrarium network will foster additional green spaces to the city.
