A refined multi-story residential facade precedent demonstrating careful control of horizontal balcony bands and vertical fin rhythms.
- What we like about this project
- Extremely thin profile of the top roof canopy relative to the massive multi-story scale underneath.

- Geometry
- Symmetrical multi-story facade organized on a strict grid with cantilevered horizontal balconies and vertical structural fins.
- Facade system
- Glass balustrade balconies set within a structural post-and-beam grid with integrated vertical sun-shading fins.
- Structural guess
- Reinforced concrete frame with cantilevered slab projections.
- Spatial scale
- Five-story residential scale, anchored by tall vertical structural modules.
- Lighting
- Even daylight with soft shadows under deep balcony overhangs, highlighting the layered facade depth.
- Atmosphere
- Calm, orderly, and integrated with lush landscape elements.
- Environmental context
- Urban residential setting featuring a manicured lawn, stone-paved forecourt, and mature trees in the foreground.
- Spatial experience
- The building presents a commanding yet refined horizontal profile, anchored by a landscaped forecourt and restrained paving.
- Composition rhythm
- Rigid orthogonal grid modulated by repeating balcony layers and slender vertical fins.
