Four Apartment Townhouse
Main Concepts:
Given the site’s orientation (Entry façade facing East) a glass enclosure on the southern side of the building was introduced.
This strategy allows the largest wall to receive direct solar exposure from the south.
The circulation of the townhouse was placed within the enclosure, which enacts an experiential environment of community.
The explosive shard-like shapes were derived from solar angles made during the summer and winter solstices.
