"Sustainable Urban Living: A Case Study of One Central Park"

This case study focuses on One Central Park, a pioneering mixed-use residential development in Sydney, Australia, renowned for its innovative blend of architecture, sustainability, and urban living. Designed by Jean Nouvel in collaboration with Patrick Blanc (vertical gardens) and Foster + Partners, the project exemplifies cutting-edge green architecture and environmental design. Key features of the study include its iconic vertical gardens, which seamlessly integrate greenery into the built environment, promoting biodiversity and enhancing air quality. The building's heliostat system reflects sunlight into shaded areas, optimizing natural lighting, while its advanced water recycling and energy-efficient systems contribute to reducing its ecological footprint. The study also examines the project's integration of residential, retail, and public spaces, fostering a sense of community within an urban setting. One Central Park serves as a model for sustainable high-rise developments, demonstrating how architecture can harmonize with nature to create vibrant, livable, and eco-conscious urban spaces.
