Set between the slender volumes of three residential towers (13 floors, 12 floors and 8floors), the exterior space of Cosmopolit Zenit was conceived as a layered landscape experience, where circulation, leisure and identity intersect.

CMD/LA signed both the soft and hardscape concept and design for the entire plot. The project addresses multiple layers of exterior living:
- A central patio designed as a social core;
- A continuous pedestrian flow connecting public access with private gardens;
- Integrated access to ground floor commercial units;
- Tree-lined parking lots and vehicular access corridors
From an infrastructural standpoint, the layout was coordinated with irrigation and drainage systems, functional and architectural lighting (spotlights embedded in pavement, floodlights for planting masses, pedestrian-scale poles), and culminates with a symbolic central projector casting a vertical beam visible throughout the city.
The design plays with sculptural level shifts and clean lines: large white planters, vegetated slopes, wide stairs and ramps with glass railings articulate the interplay between building and landscape. The natural palette—layered shrubs, flowering trees, and textured ground covers—brings softness and seasonal identity to the clean geometry of the ensemble.
