This urban infill multifamily housing block is distinguished by an articulated façade and vibrant materials, seamlessly complementing Studio VARA’s townhomes across a pedestrian mews. The structure comprises four blocks, descending from seven to four stories, and responds to the specific urban conditions of each frontage.
