Agropark
Surrounding by rice fields, the building is like "staccato" in music, a distinct breaks between notes. It becomes "accent on the green." The contrast approach is applied on this project to create the focus object among the greenery surrounding.
The Agropark concept of elevating the main floor on top of the ground is reminiscent of Indonesian grandstand vernacular house called 'rumah panggung'.
