If an apartment building’s amenity spaces are an afterthought during the design process, they will feel like afterthoughts in someone’s life, too. We want to make a place where memories can be created, a new type of communal space setting will enhance the living experience of the residents. And it will help the residents to form bonding. The energy of a building filled with residents that are happy and excited to meet people is unique and unmistakable. It is something that can be encouraged, with design. In an attempt to achieve so, we have created an urban scape that has contrasting architectural language. Unlike most of the apartment buildings, where they integrated all the amenity spaces at one spot. We are proposing to separate all the amenities at different locations. Each amenity space will be integrated with several housing units to form a cluster. For example a library combines with four 1B1B, two 2B1B and one 3B2B to become one cluster. And we have in total 12 clusters that are scattered on our site.
