Dis-orientation and anti-gravity in the upper sky are the thoughts to start the design.

A garden is an idea of being horizontal with multi-angles of perspectives.  When it flips up 90 degree, it becomes a vertical garden with gravity. A piece of view and green is brought in from one direction horizontally, and extends to another direction in the vertical with the help of fast elevators or a slow stairwell. The stairwell with views of multiple perspectives is an experimental detour from the perpendicular lines.
