A carefully crafted balance of the modern and traditional informs the design moves of this urban infill project. Set on the edge of a historic downtown, it speaks to the future while respecting the past. This project brings warmth, texture, and richness of detail and articulation to the building massing. Precast panels which look like terracotta, a layering of reveals, mullions, and metal trim make the articulated elegance of a building skin as refined as it is cultivated in its architectural references.
Its verticality is most pronounced at the intersection of Fuller and Winslow streets, where the resulting acute angle triggers an upward thrust raising the roof, hovering on the glassed corner. This powerful gesture is the dynamic termination of the sculptural roof element, continuous and distinctive against the skyline. Evocative of expressionist architecture, the formal tension of this specific moment in the design signals the apex of scheme.
