RAFFLES CITY

Mixt use development

2020, Chongqing, China

The landscape architecture is inspired by altitudinal vegetation zones near Sichuan Province and has a strong water character defined by the story of Yangtze River. This is the most important river in the history, culture and economy of China. It flows through a wide array of ecosystems. Throughout its history, the Yangtze River has created defining moments for the city of Chongqing and today still contributes to its commerce, trade, tourism and culture.
