The Urban Oasis is also means "Green Boat in the City" in Chinese. The form of Urban Oasis was designed to simulate Noah's Ark. Being a contemporary Noah's Ark, trees were planted on the bridge to extend greenery from the park aside. It can relieve both crowd and stress from the busy city. The shape of Urban Oasis forms like a new moon, which makes the middle of the bridge very close to another building with a garden on the second floor. It became a very strong connection between the garden and park. Besides, it can also insulate the school from the noice, which keep the school quiet.
