Project Description
A conversation within social housing about the individual versus the community. This project highlights 16 separate units stretching along the entire site, which is located in the Third Ward, Milwaukee. These units are not the same, but equal; some have a stair that extends up to the roof, whereas some have a backyard and are ADA accessible. Expressing a literal individuality within the units, the units punch in and out of the retaining wall and create different environments for each unit. The community space formality is simple with two ‘boxes’ on top of each other, with the bottom box having a slight angle to create a boundary between the public and private individual units. At that moment the building also carves in its own entrance. Overall this project is having a conversation about the individual over the community within social housing.
