To accommodate the city’s evolving urban fabric, a once-thriving flour factory is relocated, leaving behind an empty industrial shell rich with local memory and identity. Rather than erasing this legacy through demolition, the project embraces adaptive reuse as a means of honoring the site’s historical presence while reimagining its future potential.

Rooted in extensive research into the local community and the city’s long-term development plans, the design transforms the factory campus into a multi-functional green park. The centerpiece of the proposal is a continuous, undulating white concrete slab that weaves together the scattered warehouses and factory buildings, both physically and programmatically. This slab serves as both a circulation system and a public landscape—resolving previously disconnected pathways and creating vibrant communal spaces.

Beneath the slab, the contrast between old and new becomes a defining spatial experience. The aged textures of the industrial warehouse buildings are juxtaposed against the smooth, floating presence of the white concrete plane above. The slab hovers lightly over the preserved structures, its weight visually minimized by a series of slender vertical supports clad in reflective metal. These mirrored columns dissolve into their surroundings, amplifying the illusion that the slab is suspended like a cloud above the historic fabric of the site.

A series of extruded square pyramid-frustum skylights punctuate the slab, performing multiple roles: during the day, they channel natural light into the repurposed interiors below; on the roofscape, their geometric forms encourage informal play, rest, and gathering. By night, these luminous volumes softly glow from within, transforming the roof into a lantern-like garden that remains active after sunset.

Through this design, the project redefines the relationship between industrial heritage and urban renewal, offering a resilient model for how architecture can bridge memory, material contrast, ecology, and contemporary public life.
