Rumours abound concerning the existence of a mysterious green treasure – the result of a challenge issued by a famous architect upon his deathbed. The treasure can only be found by worthy seekers if they can decipher a series of puzzles that the architect has left behind.
Additional hints provided by the architect include a bag of strange objects that need to be given to certain people in exchange for critical clues, and a list of sites to be visited in order to meet these people.
To solve the puzzles and figure out the significance of the bag of objects, seekers will have to visit SkyVille @ Dawson and Oasia Hotel Downtown to learn about their sustainable design features.
At SkyVille @ Dawson, participants are introduced to the LUSH (Landscaping for Urban Spaces and High-Rises) initiative and the concept of greenery replacement through the use of vertical and sky gardens. Special access will be arranged to visit a home located within this estate.
When visiting Oasia Hotel Downtown, participants will discover how natural lighting and cross ventilation are maximised through innovative design, and learn about the challenges faced in the construction and execution of this project through stories gathered from the architects. A surprise awaits at the final stop.
