Telkom Landmark Tower Surabaya

Location:
Surabaya, Indonesia

Client:
PT Graha Sarana Duta

Scope:
Landscape design

The hexagonal shape of the Telkom logo serves as our inspiration, consistently repeated in the front garden, around the building, and on the 5th-floor terrace to align with the company's branding. In the reception area, where the building interfaces with the main road, hexagonal landscape grids are alternately filled with diverse local materials, encompassing both softscape and hardscape elements, creating a seamless integration of softscape and hardscape. Walkability is enhanced through well-placed plazas and pedestrian paths, guiding individuals through multiple plants, from ground cover to trees, facilitating movement in and out of the buildings.

In the reception plaza, Rainbow Eucalyptus trees provide shade for the outdoor wifi lounge, accompanied by wooden benches for added comfort. The vibrant stems of the trees contribute an iconic and distinctive character to the area. On the 5th floor, an exquisite lush garden with a wooden deck mirrors the Telkomsel logo's six-sided shape. Wooden benches connected to planters offer shade with strategically placed trees for outdoor activities.
