Vertical Suburb

Modular Housing defines the speed of an automobile consumed society. . .



The concept is to lift the two story suburban home, complete with yard and stack them vertically to create the condo tower. Exterior circulation links the units to the elevator core which is a vertical expressway.

Formal Studies

too ordered and rigid, but emerging ideas about stacking, so as the roof of the unit below forms an outdoor garden for the unit above.

Although appearing random an chaotic, there is an underlying order to the system. There is a sense of porosity at certain angles, where at other angles, the tower appears dense. Again, the roof of the unit below becomes a garden for the unit above.
