In response to the housing crisis in the Bay Area, this project unpacks the potential of modular housing as an alternative to current building practices.

The proposal hybridizes lofted units with apartment complex typologies to provide a variation of density that can exist in historically low density zones. With a configuration of five units that come together to complete a module, the design facilitates mini-communities that can provide double height living spaces and open-air circulation in each of its living quarters. Ancillary program, circulation, and site improvements are then infilled based on site specific needs.

In collaboration with Douglas Lee, Julia McElhinney, & Max Heninger
