toyo ito designed a relaxation park in torrevieja in the south of spain. with its gently rolling greens, the landscape of the park provides a place for relaxation for the citizens. the shape of the hill, similar to sand with its rippling patterns, responds to the geographical features of the surroundings. the architecture assimilates and blends with the landscape with its wavy, flowing contours.
