Namba park Namba Parks is a massive shopping concept
complex in the Minami area of Osaka with an unique architectural structure. In an attempt to bring some natural greenery into Osaka’s concrete jungle, the building is composed of a series of rising terraces with rooftop gardens at each level.

Photographic analysis Section of namba park This northward sectional view shows the relative narrowness of the canyon as it cuts through the eight levels of retail uses above grade. At the extreme left is the elevated viaduct of the OsakaKobe Expressway, and at grade, Midosuji. Facing the street, the 30-story office tower provides a buffer for Namba parks.

Interior of Namba park
Though the project's interior was originally conceived by the client as a simple concrete passageway to connect the southern parcel of the site to the crowded, peopleintensive northern parcel, we proposed a natural 'canyon' instead. The open space is curvilinear and non-planar in all dimensions. An elevator tower rises in the oval center and glass-enclosed pedestrian bridges traverse the canyon at various points at different levels, connecting the interior spaces.

Photographic analysis of rooftop garden The signature park features trees, miniature ponds, shrubbery, and planting beds—all irrigated by recycled water filtered from the graywater of the restaurants within the complex.
Features like the community gardens help to weave Namba Parks into the fabric of people's lives. During the summer, when asphalt can reach 124 degrees Fahrenheit and concrete is 113, the rooftop park is only 93.ftop
Phase 2 of Namba Parks brought the project's second tower and 344 of for-rent apartments.
