For the exterior, we wanted to blend the historic facade of the factory with modern innovation. This facade features a panel system of synthetic wood which create privacy, reduce exterior noise, and help protect the building from inclement weather.

The buildings goal was to be a multi generational builder which would encourage interaction between residents across generational lines creating a greater sense of community. To help visualize this goal, we created three user profiles of potential residents and their needs for the space.

Looking at the area around the site, we saw the booming art scene which guided our decision to create an open kiosk space in which local artists and merchants can rent space to sell their wares to the public in a form of "open market". We also noted the shortage of food places in the area. To help remedy this, we designed a café on level one and convenience store in the basement level. Additionally, we included a daycare space to encourage families to live in the building.
