NEW EDINBURGH
An environmentally sustainable design for an office and 3 unit residential building situated along a community main street. This project involved building development and landscaping to make maximum use of a small urban lot. Accessible entrance to the ground floor apartment and office is accomplished through a winding walkway and ramp built into an undulating landscape of hardy, drought resistant planting. Tree and vine planting on wood and steel trellises provide summer shading and passive solar gain in winter from the extensive south facing glazing. Planted window wells and recessed terraces decrease cooling loads and urban heat island affect for the development.
This project was in collaboration with GCG Construction.

MANOR PARK
A new 3 storey development on a corner lot which included dental and homeopathic clinics on the ground floor, with 4 residential units above. Underground parking provides visitor and resident spaces. Continuous wood trellis structures provide shading to the large windows. Covered balconies on the upper floors provide residents with outdoor amenity space.
