The brief
Public masterplans are the hardest sell in this business — there's no single hero building, just a proposal for how people will move through and use a shared space. The brief for Wave Promenade was to prove the shoreline-echoing geometry actually works as a place, not just as a striking plan-view shape.
That's why aerial view was named as its own service here: the masterplan needed to be legible from above first, so planners and the public could grasp the whole gesture, before the ground-level public-space stills made the case for how it would feel to actually walk it.
Scale and staging
We populated the pedestrian paths and green pockets with people at a believable density — enough to read as a living public space, not so many that it looks like a stock render. Every figure is doing something specific: sitting, walking a dog, cycling through — small choices that make the space feel used rather than staged.
For the aerial, we timed the light so the undulating paths cast long, legible shadows that trace the geometry on their own, without needing a diagram overlay.
