The Serpent challenges the conventional warehouse box by stretching the program into a continuous street. Public spaces line the front, logistics operations are tucked behind, and the roof undulates to accommodate diverse programmatic needs. This creates a dynamic sequence of plazas and connections, culminating in an interior civic square.
The architectural section becomes a defining motif: serrated rooflines maximize daylight and solar gain, while allowing every unit to benefit from visibility and frontage. Future mobility is integrated through adaptable drop-off points and an upper-level bridge linking the city center. In doing so, The Serpent transforms commerce into a layered, urban experience.
