Mont Orchid Riverlet Residential in Shenzhen

The Mont Orchid Riverlet residential development consists of 14 luxury apartment and serviced apartments and 3 villa blocks. It is located in the north of a mid-level estate in Shekou. These are all situated within landscaped parkland, which covers more than 50 per cent of the site area.

The brief for the project called for the design of a feature roof on the towers, presenting a challenge for RMJM to find new ideas for the external envelope of an existing building. The result goes beyond the simple addition of a roof, it is an architectural exercise in re-addressing the relationship between indoors and outdoors, its association with the villas and the surrounding landscape and moreover, giving the community new character.
