The Brooklyn Infill Housing project is designed as a modular alternative to the current housing trends. The building works with a module of 14 x 14 feet with each apartment incorporating a full module of exterior balcony space, large enough for each apartment to maintain a small elevated garden.
The building lifts from the ground to create a public plaza with incorporated bike storage that is served by commercial units on the ground floor and pushes down from the top to create full modules of exterior terraces.
The building designs flexibility allows it to accommodate a variety of sites and can easily be scaled to integrate into zoning regulations of most urban residential neighbourhoods.
