Where Everyday Feels Like a Getaway.
Matera Lakeside Phase-1.
Location: Tangerang, Indonesia
Area: 12000 m2
Completion: May 2026
Scope: Site Planning, Full Landscape Design Services
Matera Lakeside Launching Area is the first realized phase of the landscape vision for Matera Lakeside, a residential community shaped by the experience and character of a tropical lakeside resort. Conceived as an introduction to the development, the project establishes the design language, atmosphere, and spatial identity that will guide the future evolution of the community.
Located along the waterfront, the Launching Area is designed to immerse visitors in a relaxed resort-like environment from the moment they arrive. The landscape embraces the natural presence of the lake through open views, lush tropical planting, shaded gathering spaces, and pedestrian-friendly pathways that encourage exploration and connection with the surrounding environment.
Rather than functioning as a conventional sales environment, the landscape was conceived as an immersive experience that demonstrates the lifestyle envisioned for the community. Inspired by tropical resort environments, the design combines generous planting, shaded pedestrian spaces, and carefully composed arrival sequences to create an environment that feels calm, welcoming, and timeless.
The project organizes circulation through a continuous green spine that connects key destinations while encouraging people to slow down, walk, and engage with the landscape. Native and tropical-adapted planting creates a lush microclimate, improves thermal comfort, and establishes a strong visual identity that will mature over time. Every planting composition was selected not only for aesthetics but also for long-term resilience, ease of maintenance, and suitability for the local climate.
Hardscape materials were intentionally kept refined and restrained, allowing vegetation, spatial proportions, and natural light to define the character of the place. Seating areas, pedestrian pathways, and gathering spaces are integrated into the planting, creating outdoor rooms that support both everyday use and special events during the project's marketing phase.
Beyond creating an attractive first impression, the landscape establishes a framework for the future development of Matera Lakeside. It demonstrates how public space, ecology, and residential living can be integrated into a cohesive landscape system that enhances property value while providing meaningful outdoor experiences for future residents.
The completed Launching Area represents more than a sales destination—it is the first built expression of a long-term vision where landscape becomes the defining identity of the community.
