BAM South (Brooklyn Academy of Music)

It is a 35 stories mixed use building that includes 379 residential units from studios to 1& 2--bedroom apartments, a resident lounge, a fitness center, an Apple store, two stories of whole foods, 3 stories of BAM Cinemas, 1 floor of 651 ARTS Dance Studio, the Museum of Contemporary African Diasporan Arts, the Brooklyn Public Library and a 3 story parking garage.

The 32-story tower is articulated as three volumes: a central circulation spine and two flanking volumes, where the apartments are located. The tower and the building base are unified by a continuous folding skin of perforated metal, which pick up the colors of the surrounding streets, buildings and sky, and thereby putting the focus where it should be on the activated street-scape and life of the city.
