Housing and Mixed Use
Urban Corridor Matrix
The research of this matrix was conducted over several years. We looked for an alternative to medium and high density mixed-use development. This project includes public spaces within the blocks, institutional facilities above street level, residential units of multiple types, time-share of working spaces, a mix of retail and site-specific public art. It confronts change, future growth, sustainability and affordability.
Housing for the Elderly
“A convincing result in an urban building with a local character, in dialogue as much with modernity as with Mediterranean-ness. It offers a vast range of opportunities for social encounters and introduces special continuity that favors orientation, the needs of the handicaps and infiltration of light and warmth.”
