SM2 Cidade Jardim Corporate Center 2.0.0

As I said on the dev thread, this is really a work of art! It's not only a great recreation of the complex original, but also a pool of awesome details, specially props (that, I insist, deserve to be used in more forms). And while the esplanade indeed looks a bit awkward to the first sight, it is justified when the recreation aim takes precedence.

This project ended up pretty good IMO. Nick's intention was to make the Lot based on the real one with some modifications, and actually - I don't know if it's happening everywhere - but these newer projects in Brazil are always highlighting the towers doing empty esplanades around them, especially in São Paulo and other very dense cities where you have a concrete jungle, it kinda relieves the view. I think this lot and these buildings definitely won't fit in every city, so you just need to check where they fit better
The pond and the bridge are lovely, and the textures and trees were very well chosen.

Thank you for 'leaving' your work area a bit to give some attention to this project

 

5 stars for the added props and textures alone
After looking at the satellite picture, I'd say it's a pretty accurate representation, especially considering SC4's limitations.  Nice work, and thanks for donating your time to help lot JP's great models.

Don't get me wrong, I really do appreciate all of the custom textures created specifically for this, but it would have been great if the vast expanse of plain concrete was filled with something...interesting.

Too much empty space behind the blocks. It looks unfinished, I think it wouldn't be problem for You to fix it soon 

Wow, this is different ; those little gardens... the green water.. [I wouldn't ind having them as separate plops !!! :-)] A very nice way to highlight those great buildings,  I like it a lot. But indeed the grey expanse could be more interesting  ; however, if it is plop-friendly... (is it ? if no, could it be ? we could then provide our own interests:-) )

thank you for creating this complex to better show of these excellent buildings and thanks too for the new props

In most large cities in the world, empty space (or 'negative space' as it is referred to in designer parlance) is the ultimate statement of luxury. It allows each element to breathe and be appreciated on its own. It's a nice collaboration between lot and bat, imho.

 

Something different after a lot of rail related stuffs. and like it. Good use of @JP Schriefer's nice buildings!

Thanks for making this lot!
