Project’s section demonstrating the unique figure-ground status of the volume, how could design accentuate the given relationship of terraced profile and pilotis diagram?

The design emphasizes the interplay between the terraced volumes and the pilotis-supported ground level by orchestrating a continuous spatial sequence that extends from the landscape to the add-on ramp and upward toward the stepped massing. This spatial gradient creates a distinctive arrival experience for residents, transforming the ground plane into a permeable and engaging environment that encourages informal social interaction. The vivid, unified color treatment applied to the ramp, retaining walls, and lower-level planes accentuates this continuity and extends seamlessly to the upper terraces, reinforcing cohesion across the architectural composition while visually anchoring the building within its topographic setting.
