Space, light, glass and a gleam of chrome. Reflective surfaces are used to lift light levels within the terrariums. The Terrarium City becomes a dream of tranquility. It is build up with large scales augmented triangular prism frames. In lieu of glass and ceramics, each prism is made up of copper steel frames, some covered with glass. Each terrarium space combines modular architecture and can function on its own as a space where visitors can enter, see, feel and interact with plants. It is built employing sustainable design.

Summer is starting to unfold beautifully, if you have a green thumb but minimal garden space, why not create your own mini-world full of lush and beautiful plants by making your own terrarium? If you can’t wait any longer to get back to nature, then why not bring the outdoors indoors with a homemade terrarium?

Terrariums used to be popular in 70s, and recently had a comeback in recent design trends among teens and young adults. They are retro-modern, pretty, and can be displayed anywhere as a decoration, and to help improve indoor air quality. The Terrarium City is an inspiration from my interest in devising new ways of encouraging young generations to engage with horticulture in the modern urban world.

Inside the Terrarium expanse, it houses large scales of cacti and succulents, along with moss. The reason why I did terrariums in giant scales is because I believe that even the smallest efforts or gesture can result in major impacts in the way people approach the subject of horticulture. Terrariums are easy-to-make, low-maintenance gardens, and can last almost indefinitely with minimal water. 
At the end of each visit, they will be given a mini terrarium with succulents and soil kits when they pay a visit. This is to convey the message that having a terrarium makes younger generation realising that nature does not have to be in large scale or outdoors.
