| Existing at the intersection of civic, commercial, and residential activity, the project emerged from a process of contextual sampling confined
within the restrictions of an exaggerated historic preservation agenda and municipal zoning constraints. Confronted with 2 lots that
straddle a nondescript, but sacred Post-war apartment building, the massing of the complex is derived from the collusion of abstract
reference and the mundane. Financial objectives-- the maximization of saleable area and idealized unit/parking correlations are kept in
check with sensitivity towards the maintenance of the surrounding urban fabric.
A dramatic entry sequence-- emphasizes differentiations is time-subtly sequencing from old to new. |
