The Infamous Prototype Le Corbusier's Unite d' Habitation i
Skip-stop unit organization allowed for a decrease in space used for circulation and an increase in space used for living.
ii
Full span units and double height spaces allowed in more light.
iii
Public space was located within the corridor and on the 7th and 8th floors.

Hybridizing the Unite involved applying a program of art student dormitory living and creating seperate public streets that interwove studio spaces and pseudo-living room spaces. Each of the public streets is located every other floor on the stop levels. The density of the public spaces creates a townhome typology; blended private and communal spaces with microcommunal pockets.
