Water features at the Forest Pavilion- The Forestias

 

The Canopy Walk

The name of this blog is related to the landscape that is part of oneself, nature and mankind becoming one, feeling nature inside us.
This project by Foster and Partners expresses very well the idea of "Inbuilt Landscape". From v2.com:

"The Forestias is one of the largest property development projects in Thailand. The highlight of the project is a 48,000 square meter of urban forest at the center of The Forestias, connecting all developments within the site to create a healthier and happier living for all residents. The Forest Pavilion is located in The Forestias, which currently functions as the sales gallery, and will be converted into The Forestias Ecosystem Learning Center for sharing knowledge of forest ecosystem, and be a hub of residence society for joyful moments. it is also an entrance gateway to the broad forest zone of The Forestias, providing a prototype of living with nature. Our commitment is to support happiness and wellness of the users and create an immersive experience of living with nature, which achieved by utilizing the research as design strategies."

My emphasis is on the water features, with a contemporary design, but still as a reminiscence of rocks and waterfalls. I like to see how children could play in this immersive proposal.

This one reminds me as a child, playing inside the arroyos of Cordoba, Argentina, and looking for colorful rocks and stones. I would have selected the color of real stones and mica brightness under the sun.
