In addition to the aforementioned gray brick, another cohesive element in the design is color, specifically green. Be it the subtle shades in the almost white walls of the south-facing terraces or the iron content of the glass giving a green glow to the north-facing stairwells, green is a theme that runs through the project, be it color or vegetation. Fitting the latter, climbing plants define the exterior wall of the lobby, while a band of green also sits between the two buildings. These sorts of gestures not only tie the composition together but make the daily experience of living at Colonie richer and more unique. |
