I Grew a Mountain Forest Among Towers of Steel and Glass | WanPeng Zu | TEDxWukang Rd

As cities rise ever higher, why do people become increasingly disconnected from wind, trees, and the changing seasons? Landscape architect Wanpeng Zu begins with the concept of a "climbable mountain forest," bringing nature back into high-rise architecture. Through the exploration and everyday experiences of its users, the space gains an unexpected vitality. Sustainability is no longer just an idea on paper, but becomes part of daily life — transforming a space drawn by designers into a city truly lived by its people. 1、Global Urban Public Realm Explorer
