Design Philosophy
The project emphasizes the artistic and industrial characteristics of the neighborhood playing with corrugated metal panels, in a facade with the movement of boxes in and out and the accent of colors in the entrance and common areas. And offering affordable housing, the development seeks to support diverse demographic groups, including low to moderate-income families, thereby fostering a more inclusive community.
That benefits from its proximity to the artistic and cultural hub of Wynwood. Residents will enjoy easy access to local art galleries, shops, restaurants and public transportation. The location is ideal for individuals and families.
