Downwind

Downwind Residential Apartment  Form in relation to the site context and alley landscape: This project is located adjacent to predominantly one-story buildings. Since the project must be a three-story building, to maintain the continuity of the neighbors, the project created form flection and depression to align the form with the skyline. That means the first and second floors are expanded laterally and appear as an independent volume. The ground floor maintains the adjacent building connection and continuity in a surface shape. The building form is rounded at the corners where the main and secondary streets intersect to preserve the conjunction of volume (first and second floors) and the surface (ground floor).
