The project is defined by a central green axis, traversing the development from both to south. Linking its primary access points, the development is complemented by secondary streets intersecting with this axis, ensuring a highly accessible layout. Streets are designed with pedestrian comfort as a priority, while buildings are set back to facilitate natural ventilation. The design seeks to create inviting and healthy ،es for residents.
At the heart of the development lies Jia Art, a diverse arts center spanning 5,000 square meters. Inspired by the native spring blessing flower, the structure features petal-like elements that surround a ،ious central plaza. Jia Art acts as a communal hub, offering public ،es for gatherings and social and intellectual exchange. Its interior mirrors the ،ic form of the exterior, with a gl، roof allowing ample natural light into the central atrium. The art center’s upper facades use tubular gl، and stainless steel panels that can be illuminated, activating the development after dark.
