Each module was fabricated and finished off-site and includes two complete units plus a section of connecting corridor. The compact homes come furnished and stocked with basic household goods and welcome companion dogs. Residences top a community-oriented ground floor that opens widely to a vibrant courtyard lined with a bright custom mural and plantings. A flexible community room, office suite, exam room, and meeting room support full-time, wrap-around resident services. With high ceilings and extensive glazing, the light-filled space balances security and transparency.

The site falls within the SOMA Pilipinas Filipino Heritage District, a zone intended to preserve the diversity with attention to the culture of the Filipino American community. The design team consulted with SOMA Pilipinas, who offered thoughtful references and imagery to inform elements throughout the building, including the use of the traditional woven mats as a pattern in the cast concrete; a graphic of rice terraces in the perforated metal stair tower; and a palette drawn from Filipino imagery.

The building's striking sawtooth facade orients apartment windows toward downtown views and away from the facing Hall of Justice. The custom-patterned weathering steel and natural aluminum rainscreen is perforated for integrated venting.
