The Torus is a mix-use studio apartment building, located in the heart of Williamsburg. Intending to create a space for the socialization and integration of people from all different backgrounds and personality types. A extensive study of the torus geometry permitted the development of a building which contains two different kinds of outdoor spaces, while relieving the heavy building mass with a panelized curtain wall coated in a gradient colorful that protect its inhabitants from the direct sun light. The parametric design creates a strong contrast with building surrounding and a circulation that goes in 360 degrees.
