Urban Design
A new condominium development located in Detroit’s oldest neighborhood of historic Corktown.
The building design is inspired by a prototypical walk-up/walk-down rowhouse typology of upper and lower units. Each grounded and elevated ‘stoop’ encourages street level interaction between inhabitants and the pedestrian traffic of the neighborhood. The exterior of the building is composed of burnished concrete masonry, metal components, expansive glass windows with metal panels, metal mesh railings, wood siding components, and custom wood doors. Each unit offers open living spaces, three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, and two secured parking spaces in the rear.
The internal courtyards between the homes not only provide outdoor spaces but also facilitate cross-ventilation and abundant natural light deep within the floor plans.
