Outline

This project is an apartment that consists of an owner's house on the first floor and rentals on the second and third floor. We designed two cores, which integrate structure and living function, in space where three volumes are overlapped. Thereby these cores, we could make horizontal continuous windows surrounding this building. The consecutive four canopies attached to the top and bottom of these windows control glare and solar gain and the view from the street. This building has an off grid power system. Residents share energy and this living space, thereby creating a community.
