Inspiration Park East Ledang
Inspiration Park is a low-density, up-market residential enclave located in Precinct 6 of Nusajaya, Johor. The landscape design concept celebrates the gardens and diversity by introducing vibrant colours, forms, textures and promotes an ecologically sound environment. The main landscape area is a Linear Park, which is centrally located, and enjoys direct links to the main entrance of the lake area. The design is highlighted with a series of curves and loops, made of different materials, which form patterns along the pavement. A multipurpose plaza forms the centre of the park, overlaid and linked with walkways and a reflexology path. Shelters, designed in tune with the architectural scheme of the nearby houses, allocated near the entrance plaza, are equipped with gabion benches that add a raw touch to the park. Here at Inspiration Park, 33% of the overall residential enclave comprises not only the park areas but also buffer zones designated along the boundaries. As a whole, this space encompasses approximately 6.3 acres of inter-connected green areas that soften the rigidity and repetition of the overall housing layout.
