A design competition winning entry. Four design firms were invited to compete on the basis of “efficiency” “maximum view” and “creative use of accesses & materials” Creative use of two Y-shaped tower with two cores each allowed “maximum view line” from each apartment unit. We have lifted the building to allow a ground level parking with a three-lane auto drop-off area while maintaining “vehicular-free” landscape deck for residents to enjoy. A water feature including a stream and a waterfall was used to create a tranquil environment extended to the nearby park. Two types of stones -limestone and granite- and a metal roof were used to achieve a “timeless” residential design.
