This project was completed when our principal, Serina was working as a Senior Project Manager at Levy Design Partners. Levy Design Partners, Inc. is the Architect for this project.

​

The project included 16 three story townhouse units on the corner of 20th Street and Market in Oakland. Each unit is separated onto its own mini-lot, which means that each building has its own property line boundary. By providing individual lots, the buildings are each considered independent and each unit has both a front and rear door, making each unit feel like its own home rather than an apartment.

​

The ground floor of each unit has a private garage, bathroom, and office area. The second floor of each unit includes the living, dining, and kitchen areas. At the top floor we provided bedrooms and bathrooms.

​

The units are a combination of 1, 2, and 3 bedroom units. A two story volume in each unit provides for maximum light and views of the surrounding areas.

 

The design includes units with a shed roof design, large two story windows, and a combination of hardi-panel siding and stucco finishes. We used the color blue in the façade to indicate the location of window-seats at the interior space; a vocabulary we carried throughout the project.
