The second aspect of the design
are the cantilevered bays that
punctuate the cubic mass on all sides. Functionally, these
replace the space taken by the inset balconies in the units
at and near the corner. Looking at the plan,
these units border a light well in a mass that sits above
the entrance, a cafe, and other common areas. Additional residences
site in a three-story, double-loaded bar to the north, and
a multi-purpose conference area sits in a one-story extension
to the east. This "L-shape" plan addresses the main
spine of the campus while also addressing the residential
area to the northwest with its mass. A recreational area across
this side street contributes both to the Cirque members and
the adjacent neighborhood. |
