Gabellini Sheppard

At Echelon, modern elegance is fused with a sense of adventure to define a new pleasure paradigm. The signature luxury lifestyle experience is defined by grand public activity spaces including the Conservatory, Elliptical Courts, and the Atrium Cascade, which are interwoven within a meandering boulevard of designer boutiques along two levels. Three-story-high curving, layered proscenium arches create a dramatic entrance procession, with polished filigree terra cotta screens of interlocking loops hovering before overlapping frames of brescia marble and limestone. 

Conceived as a revolving fantasy for the senses, specific design elements and the overall spatial aesthetic are inspired by forms and patterns found in nature.  A sense of artistic romance pervades this whimsical leisure environment. From the urban-scaled masterplan to the subtly layered material and color palettes of the interconnected amenity spaces, exquisite craft and detailing express an artisanal approach to living, entertainment, and shopping. The environment is infused with warm ambient and theatrical light, a refined material palette, and the ever-evolving spectacle of premium goods for the offering.
