This project was to design a housing complex oriented towards family. From early research and observation, the lack of a major green gathering space was needed. I wanted to create a space in which the community and the tenants could enjoy both private and public. So i created a space in which its covered from la brea boulevard because it is heavily  impacted by traffic and its much calmer on rodeo. So to create more flexibility within levels, i created a penthouse units which accommodates each unit much more organized than if it would be created as a flat. This created a hierarchy effect within the design and the highest point is at 75 feet and decreases as a different housing unit is introduced.
