. Concept

This mixed-use development in downtown Toronto features two main buildings: a subsidized housing complex with twisty, angular balconies, and a condo- minium with cascading duplex units at each corner. Connected by a two-level podium housing a dayca- re, community center, and retail spaces, the project embodies modern minimalism and fosters community interaction. Sustainability is central to the design, utilizing a sustainability matrix with materials like brick and solar panels to ensure energy efficiency and environmen- tal responsibility. The development aims to create a vibrant, inclusive urban space that enhances resi- dents’ quality of life through thoughtful design and high-quality amenities.
