Created in collaboration with French designer Philippe Starck, YOO is a deluxe residential building. The architecture and interior design took into consideration the growth of the Griffintown district, while uniting both flamboyance and simplicity. The founders of YOO aspired to create a vertical village to bring together a population possessing numerous, different lifestyles. The glass tower features 30-foot high arches, animating the cultural corridor of Ottawa St. A street garden was created, giving a portion of the land back to the community.
