Even though people may live in close proximity, their relationships are often quite distant. The project is community lobby connecting 36 households from two separate buildings. The lobby draws visual and thematic inspirations with the interior composed of darker color tones and titanium-plated metals and achieves a three-fold design by using differently shaded materials for the floor. The façades utilize a blend of diverse materials, which guides people’s gaze to the lattice and ceiling lights, creating another layer of the three-fold design.
