Jardin allows the simple pleasures of living in a garden to be materialised in a high-rise environment, by literally bringing gardens right into the sky. Through the creative employment
of URA’s guidelines for sky terraces, Jardin’s integration of extensive softscape and hardscape, vertically and horizontally, renews the notion of highrise green living. Garden terraces connecting the various levels act as multiple ground floors, bringing the greenery close to the living spaces despite the high-rise conditions. These “sky-gardens” enhance the streetscape of Dunearn Road and reinforce Jardin’s identity in the locale as a unique development.
