設計獎項新訊 │ 美國科羅拉多州景觀公寓大樓 One River North
A crack of natural terrain carves through the 16-story glass facade of One River North, (ORN), a new mixed-use development near the center of Denver, Colorado’s River North Art District (RiNo). More than just an apartment building, One River North is a vertical landscape for its residents to wander as if hiking in the mountains. “Imagine living in a building yet feeling as though you’re immersed in a natural landscape—like living within a canyon itself,” says MAD Principal Architect, Ma Yansong.
This terrain-inspired fissure rises from the ground up, pulling the spirit of nature into the heart of the city. It brings the pulse of the earth into the modern urban fabric, softening the coldness of contemporary architecture with a sense of wildness and vitality. Moving through the spaces along this crack feels like walking along a mountain path — as you ascend, light, greenery, and urban views shift and flow together, so that every floor feels connected to nature. This design closes the distance between people and their environment, breaking the rigid image of a typical high-rise and bringing an unexpected sense of intimacy.
Here, architecture is no longer just shelter — it becomes a vertical community that interacts with its surroundings. The building acts as an extension of the natural world, positioning residents’ daily lives at the threshold between city and nature. Morning light streaming through the glass façade and the evening breeze drifting along the fissure offer moments of calm and freedom, allowing people to find inner peace amid concrete and steel. This is more than an apartment building; it is an experiment in the symbiosis of city and nature.
The inspiration behind this design comes from the depth and flow of canyon landscapes. Through this fissure-like vertical garden, people can feel embraced by nature even in the city. This immersive experience makes residents feel as if they’re strolling along a mountain trail, standing in stark contrast to the towering urban skyline. Light, wind, and greenery filter into every corner, helping people escape the city’s noise and rediscover the quiet comfort of the natural world — a rare luxury in an urban environment.
一條自然地形的裂縫貫穿了位於科羅拉多州丹佛市中心附近，名為「一河北岸藝術區」（RiNo）的全新混合用途開發項目——一河北岸公寓（ORN）16層高的玻璃幕牆。一棟北岸公寓不只是一棟公寓大樓，更是一個垂直景觀，讓住戶彷彿在山間漫步。 「想像一下，住在一棟建築裡，卻又彷彿沉浸在自然景觀之中——就像身處峽谷之中一樣，」MAD首席建築師馬岩松說道。
自然地形的裂縫從地面一路向上，這道裂縫彷彿將大自然引入都市之中，讓人感受到土地本身的脈動，為原本冰冷的現代建築注入了野性與靈動。沿著裂縫設計的空間有如在山間小徑上行走，隨著樓層變換，光線、綠意與城市視野交錯流動，使每層樓都如同置身自然，拉近了人與環境之間的距離，這樣的設計打破了傳統高樓冰冷的形象，帶來一種前所未有的親近感。
在這裡，建築不再僅僅是容身之所，而是一個與環境互動的垂直社區。建築成為自然的延伸，住戶的生活被重新定位於都市與自然的交界處。無論是清晨透進玻璃幕牆的光線，或是傍晚穿梭其間的微風，都讓人在鋼筋水泥之中找回一份內心的平靜與自在。這不只是一棟公寓，更是一場關於城市與自然共生的實驗。
設計背後的靈感來自於峽谷地形的縱深感與流動感，透過這條裂縫般的垂直景觀，讓人即使身在城市，也能感受到大自然的懷抱。沉浸式的空間體驗，彷彿住戶正漫步於山間小徑，與高聳的城市天際線形成鮮明對比。光影、風聲與綠植滲入每一個角落，讓人忘卻城市的喧囂，重新找回自然裡的寧靜與舒適，這正是都市中難能可貴的奢侈。
