References: kubotabachmann
This Kaohsiung Port and Cruise Centre proposal by Kubota & Bachmann hopes to infuse one of the first structures travelers to Taiwan ever see with a beautiful and iconic design reminiscent of the country's ecological riches.
With an undulating shape meant to resemble Taiwain's topography and a colorful, vibrant living roof inspired by its bird species and vegetation, this proposed version of the Kaohsiun Port and Cruise Centre would not only be a beautiful landmark but would also boast some nifty eco-benefits such as reduced runoff, cleaner air and passive cooling from its garden roof.

Trend Themes
1. Living Roofs - Construction companies can develop more vibrant and eco-friendly buildings by implementing living roofs which can aid in passive cooling, air cleaning and reduced runoff.
2. Nature-inspired Designs - Designers can create unique and memorable buildings for travelers by incorporating undulating shapes and vibrant colors that are inspired by the nature and ecology of a destination.
3. Sustainable Architecture - Architects and landscape designers can contribute towards sustainable living by incorporating eco-friendly features in their designs like green roofs, large windows that promote natural light and ventilation, and rainwater harvesting systems.
Industry Implications
1. Construction - Companies can implement nature-inspired designs and sustainable architecture practices to create buildings that take advantage of eco-benefits like reduced runoff, cleaner air and passive cooling using garden roofs.
2. Architecture - Architects can incorporate living roofs into their projects to create energy-efficient and environmentally conscious buildings that benefit the occupants while also being visually appealing.
3. Green Technology - Green technology firms can focus on developing innovative products that support sustainable architecture practices such as rainwater harvesting systems, high-performance insulation, and energy-efficient lighting.
