What I did

  • Drew the master plan with planting and paving materials, 1:500.
  • Designed the promenade from the metro exit to Ermou Street with green and water elements.
  • Designed tree-shaped canopies for the outdoor cafés.
  • Added an amphitheatre, a lower-level play area and a space for large public events.
