Pockets of tranquillity - distilling
the serenity
20trees was conceived to inspire a sense of inner peace that
resonates with tranquillity of the natural surroundings. The
realisation of this haven takes the form of 20 unique environments.
Two of these are “macro” environments. The first “macro” environment
is environment 19, which is the Melawati area, where 20trees
is located. This quiet corner of Kuala Lumpur is exceptional
not just for its peaceful, unspoilt ambience without large scale
commercial developments or high-rises, but also the magnificent
quartz and granite ridges that surround it.
The other macro environment, environment 20, is the enclave
itself, which encompasses 23 acres of gently undulating terrain
that has been developed as lightly and carefully as possible
in order to preserve its authentic essence.
Within 20trees, another 18 mini environments, bearing such names
as The Rippling Terrace, The Sacred Garden and A Meditative Pause,
evoke artistic yet organic themes through landscaping and sculpture.
Functional, yet so aesthetically appealing, each environment
captures an aspect of the calm and serenity that blankets the
entire enclave.
A number of the mini environments re concentrated at the northeast
point of 20trees, where the clubhouse is located. The Clubhouse
is itself an architectural delight, as these (9) environments
are so seamlessly integrated that they seem to spring organically
from the built environments. The Water Terrace transforms the
50-metre pool that extends to an “end of the world” Jacuzzi,
into a water paradise. Bamboo Yellow is where you can find the
tennis courts, hidden in the midst of a bamboo grove that provides
both shade and a natural barrier for the tennis balls. |
