VIEW FINDER
The design and siting of this project allowed the majority of the residents to enjoy views of the nearby mountains from their balconies.


MASS APPEAL
The architect spec’d thick walls, like you’d see in the area’s custom homes, to give the residents deep window sills.


RESOURCE WISE
All the landscaping is drought tolerant, and a watering system was included in the design. Because the project is located near a high-end country club area, the team decided to be a “good neighbor” and put mature plantings on the sides that face existing houses.


SPACE FOR ALL
By putting cars underground, the planners were able to free up public gathering spaces.


Location is key to an affordable project’s success. This project is located within a 1/2 mile of existing water and sewer lines, and near public transportation.
