DESIGN EVOLUTION
The architectural concept evolves through stages, initially with a single open-plan block. A garden terraced block is added, blending nature seamlessly into the design. Next, a second block introduces a sloped terraced garden, later divided into sections with a skylight and a stepped roof garden. These sections are connected by a staircase, leading to an upper open terrace, offering panoramic views and completing the fusion of modern architecture with natural elements.
