Project Title: Steps of Tranquility







Design Concept



Steps of Tranquility is conceived as a spatial dialogue between people and nature. The terraced structure harmonizes with the surrounding topography, waterfront, and woodland, appearing to grow organically from the lakeside. The combination of glass and stone strikes a balance between functionality and aesthetics: the transparent materials reflect the sky and water, blurring the boundary between architecture and nature, while the stone base provides a sense of solidity and warmth, symbolizing a deep connection to the land and local culture.
