The project goal was to create a sustainable living
community rooted in local culture with LEED Green
Building Certification. The project is comprised of
mixed use residential and retail development, mostly
on-structure, with a combination of villas, row/town
houses and mid- and high-rise apartments. SWA
collaborated with the architect and design engineers
to utilize applicable green strategies to cope with and
feature on-site energy use, water and waste recycling.
A productive landscape is re-introduced through a
series of community parks, open spaces and courtyard
gardens to implement responsible reuse of existing
farmland for housing, and features food production
for the community in a way that fosters appreciation
of traditional cultivation practices.
