An upscale complex of four apartment buildings in downtown Jakarta catering to visiting executives and their families required landscape design services to ground two recently constructed towers. Providing inspiration for enriching this flat, undifferentiated site were the country’s ubiquitous, terraced rice paddies, located just beyond the city’s border. The centerpiece of the resulting design is a stacked garden with indigenous plantings arranged in straight and curvilinear strips that link to the already developed area. The new garden’s 15-foot range in elevation functions on several levels: it offers improved views for those strolling through, provides the more intimately scaled spaces expected in such high-end residences, and hides mechanical services for a new swimming pool underneath its form. The garden’s terraces descend to a stepped waterfall that fills a replica of the swimming pool anchoring the other end of the property. Connecting the four-tower cluster along the site’s outer edge is a stone path flanked by palm trees and lush foliage that serves as a buffer against the noise and pollution from a large adjacent road.
