Afloat — International Competition Project
A design project developed for an international competition focused on the creation of a flood-resilient urban territory in Jakarta, Indonesia. The project was shortlisted.
The concept of the public space is built on a dialogue between the expressive architectural form and the softness of the tropical landscape.
The flowing silhouettes of the buildings create a distinctive identity for the complex, while the inner territory unfolds as a pedestrian environment with reflecting pools, recreation areas, and lush greenery.
The central space is organized around decorative water features and a free-flowing system of pathways, creating natural scenarios for movement, meetings, and relaxed everyday use.
Palm trees, dense planting, small architectural elements, and intimate outdoor areas soften the scale of the development, turning the courtyard into a vibrant resort-like oasis.
The project brings together futuristic architecture, the natural fluidity of form, and a comfortable urban environment, where the landscape is not a backdrop, but an integral part of the spatial identity.
