Text description provided by the architects. These four townhouses present an innovative approach to the design of medium-density housing. Each townhouse has been designed with excellent connections to the outdoors, maximized access to north light, and natural ventilation. Internal spaces allow for flexibility and the varied lifestyles of inhabitants. The challenge was to provide designs that allowed north light to as many spaces as possible on the four north-south sites while balancing sustainable design features and material selection with the project budget and intended resale values. The 'end user' was not known, so design features and materials had to be flexible, low-maintenance, and have a low environmental impact, to provide value for potential purchasers.
