But soar above it in a plane or helicopter and it's clear that there's more to it than first meets the eye. The [rooftops boasts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shenzhen-energy-ring) [stunning landscaped terraces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/go-park-sai-sha) that provide those working in the building with a refreshing getaway when the stress of life gets to be a bit much. Designed by ZHUBO DESIGN, the Shenye TaiRan Building's gardens are private, but in a way they might as well be described romantically as secret. With [lush foliage, walking paths](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mangrove-garden) and curved benches, it's like something straight out of a novel. The Shenye TaiRan Building is located in Shenzhen, China. Yet perhaps similar architecture will be found in other parts of the world soon. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.5/10 - Popularity: 77% | Activity: 80% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Landscaped Rooftop Terraces:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore the potential for incorporating landscaped rooftop terraces in commercial buildings to provide a refreshing escape and improve employee well-being. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Architecture and Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop innovative techniques for incorporating landscaped rooftop terraces in building designs, creating unique and attractive spaces. - **Real Estate:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Capitalize on the growing demand for commercial buildings with rooftop terraces, creating a unique selling point for properties. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Urban Roofscape Projects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/central-yards.md) - [Hotel-Based Garden Terraced Columns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pan-pacific-orchard.md) - [Colorful Rooftop Unified Buildings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nantou-hybrid-building.md) - [Light-Filled City Center Gardens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/secret-garden-2.md) - [Green Roof Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shibanee-kamal.md) - [Curved Green Towers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-island.md) - [Biophilic Workplace Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mangrove-garden.md) - [London-Based Garden Roofscapes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roof-garden.md) - [Greenhouse Office Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/office-for-roundtable.md)
