I am sharing here one of my favorite projects, Le Meridien 6,000 sq m of landscape, in China.
I was looking at a similar project today on Dezeen, a roof with square bands instead, and I am wondering if it has become a sort of fashion. Nevertheless, I think the grading is interesting for public spaces, and per the description on V2.com, there is a reason for this pattern:
"Paying tribute to the historical textile weaving industry of Zhengzhou, Shma created sculptural-like landscape weaves and folds to reveal an aesthetically pleasing public space. A series of undulating lawn stripes represent the silk being woven - up and down - into fabric sheets by traditional machines. An interval space is defined by matching the existing lobby pillars and architectural orders to stitch the landscape and building together in the master plan, seamlessly integrated with the car parking layout. A water feature with a sculpture is proposed in front of lobby drop-off area as a main welcoming element."
