Lyric at Norton Commons What do you get when you mix retail, residential, and 11’ of site drop within a TND community? That’s a challenge CBA tackled with Lyric at Norton Commons in Louisville, Kentucky. As a mixed-use development with 12,000 sf of retail within the Norton Commons TND complex, it was crucial to achieve connection to the street level without the use of steps. Similarly, a 5-level pre-cast parking garage with exits at common levels would need to connect both the residents and retail. Our solution came in the form of breaking the building up into cleverly designed, hidden splits. This allowed us to respond to changes in grade internally while preserving a unified exte-
rior appearance. The preferable wood structure construction type was maintained, resulting in significant cost savings. Multiple courtyards provide residents with gathering areas, each with a unique vibe and purpose. The connection walkway between the two larger courtyards crosses an elevation shift, so we used this to create a residential theater with elevated stadium-type seating. Throughout the community, adaptive thinking and structural coordination turned what could have been irregular or unused spaces into positives that could only be achieved with this unique site. Finally, the outstanding ownership group made sure all areas of the project were reviewed in detail and well thought out.

The Lodge at Hamlin The Lodge at Hamlin is a new community on the edge of Hamlin Town Center within Horizon West, an unincorporated part of Orange County, Florida. The Lodge is situated on the banks of Lake Hartley, and was planned to maximize its natural vistas. The Lodge is designed for the mature and established, perhaps looking to downsize, but without sacrificing comfort. The lodge is amenity-rich, beautiful, and draws upon a timeless nostalgia for the old outdoors. Its varied building shapes and massing give it its quaint village feel, while the architecture and textures were inspired by the
hand-built vision that gave rise to its name. The Lodge is particularly unique for its variety of unit types, ranging from 700 square foot one-bedroom units to 2-story two-bedroom units offering 1,600 square feet. Some units even have tubs within a larger shower, creating a luxurious space to unwind. Most units have plenty of space for a dining table, and many have discreet dining roomlets and large balconies with beautiful views of the surrounding wilderness. The Lodge was the recipient of the 2022 Silver Aurora Award for Best Multifamily Housing Community up to 4 Stories For Rent.

The Ybor Lofts When we started work on The Ybor Lofts near the heart of Tampa’s Ybor City neighborhood, we were excited at the unique and creative opportunities it presented us. As part of a historic district, the architectural style needed to draw inspiration from the neighboring buildings and materials, reinterpreted with a modern eye. At 85.7 units per acre, a single four-story apartment building would have exceeded the allowable square footage per Florida’s building code, therefore the structure was split into two buildings separated by a two-hour fire wall to meet compliance while achieving the density goal. This enabled us to successfully achieve 5-story density in a 4-story building.
Inside, the community features striking high-end modern conveniences expected from today’s luxury apartments, including a south beach style pool & sundeck, 24-hour fitness center with yoga and personal training, a clubroom with arcade, a catering kitchen, and a covered outdoor lounge. The Ybor Lofts was successful and gratifying in many ways. It shines as an example of modern urban luxury lifestyle, with easy walkability to local restaurants, shopping, and nightlife. The density achieved through creative problem-solving resulted in a valuable and lucrative property. Finally, we were empowered to design a new building in a unique blend of architectural styles that adds vitality to its neighborhood.

Aurora on the Trail Aurora on the Trail is a prosperous redevelopment of 15 acres of brownfield land - previously consisting of unused office park buildings, parking lots, and a pond - into attractive, vital housing. The multifamily community in Orlando, Florida, is comprised of 357 units spread across eleven 3- and 4-story buildings. Parking is distributed throughout the development as surface parking, tuck-under, and podium garages. The building mix at Aurora on the Trail was thoughtfully developed to provide a wide range of unit configurations. Building types include carriage homes and townhouses over flats that cater to low density purposes, 4-story garden for medium density, and larger 4-story L-shaped buildings for high-
er density. By utilizing this composition, we are able to successfully address the need for housing throughout multiple phases in a resident’s life. Aurora was designed with an emphasis on connected living and luxury lifestyles, with comfortable, sleek units featuring the modern touches that residents desire. Furthermore, the community is enriched with expansive amenities, which include private work spaces, a sports lounge, a poolside firepit with cabana beds, a robust fitness club featuring a yoga studio and a boxing ring, and a dedicated bicycle trail and storage center. Finally, Aurora’s prime location offers unmatched convenience and accessibility to the surrounding metro area.

Bexley Round Rock Bexley Round Rock is situated in a prime location for commuters to Austin, Texas. The multifamily development is a for-rent community of 330 units across three main types: traditional multifamily, carriage units, and townhouses. Project amenities include a stand-alone clubhouse and dedicated fitness center surrounding a pool, a dog wash station, and private fenced yards for select ground-floor units. Ancillary structures associated with the community include a trash compactor and recycling enclosure, a maintenance building, a separate mail/ parcel pavilion, and myriad carports and garages. The architectural style of the community focuses on a modern interpretation of upscale country living with a focus on
the palette of the surrounding landscape. These modern units range from one- to three-bedrooms with some having dedicated parking options and others having private fenced yards. While not every unit has an enlarged fenced-in space, each dwelling unit has been carefully designed to incorporate the outdoors and has exterior space. Flexibility is key, allowing residents to truly customize their Round Rock experience to their personal needs and goals. Parking across the site is distributed mostly as surface parking, but the carports, available for-rent tuck-under garages, dedicated townhouse parking, and available EV charging provide numerous options.

Tapestry Park Tapestry Park is an urban village concept that combines traditional yet chic apartments and townhomes interlaced with boutique shops, office spaces, retail services, and popular eateries. A key part of this project’s success is its infusion of Tattersall Tapestry Park throughout all aspects of the design. Tapestry Park occupies 18 acres and has been sculpted into a mixed-use village that blends the lifestyle of Northern Florida with a European influence. The village has 40,000 square feet of retail and restaurants with 16,000 square feet of office space. Finally, a 96-room business traveler boutique hotel sits at the end of Main Street, along the lake. Residents can choose between the 52 townhomes mixed over and around
the retail, or the 274 apartments with views of the lake or courtyards. Tattersall at Tapestry Park is a 4-story for-rent community within the larger Tapestry Park urban village concept. The 4-story parking garage is fully naturally ventilated, with 20% of the exterior fully exposed with architectural design aesthetics and 80% facing a mix of single- and double-loaded corridors. This beautiful, forward-thinking project was the recipient of the 2014 Grand Aurora Award for Best Mixed-Use Under 100 acres.

Berkshire Winter Park Berkshire Winter Park repairs the urban fabric in a challenging location, supporting north Orlando’s growing population while remaining sensitive to its neighbors. Berkshire replaced a vacant parking lot and is nestled in between Interstate 4 and the surrounding area, with the added benefit of buffering the busy interstate’s traffic and noise. To achieve a respectful, unimposing presence, the existing homes and businesses around Berkshire Winter Park are neighbored by narrow facades. Meanwhile, the adjacent 3-acre Calvary Church parking lot is presented with a gesture of attractive urban townhomes that encourages further walkable development.
Beyond the typical high-end apartment conveniences, Berkshire Winter Park attracts a community of creative, urbane professionals with an abundance of modern concepts. Amenities include a podcasting studio, creative work room, pet spa/lounge, and outdoor recreational areas, while numerous old growth live oak trees were preserved in the development of various courtyards and gathering spaces. The project even takes advantage of the adjoining elevated highway infrastructure to provide a wonderful, surprisingly quiet garden muse. Berkshire is a successful anchor in the community and contributes to the critical mass that sustainably supports the nearby medical complex, local businesses, and SunRail mass transit system.

The Hill at Eastbury At first glance, The Hill at Eastbury may appear to be a simple 4-story garden apartment neighborhood. What sets this unique community apart, however, is the way it reacts to the region’s terrain. Homewood, Alabama is known for its gentle topography and serene rolling hills, a picturesque environment that creates grade fluctuations which must be accounted for when designing buildings. In the case of The Hill, the site drops off from front to back, so we developed a solution that would use the change in grade to our advantage. The size of the building, both in area and height, necessitated that we subdivide the construction into four adjoining buildings through the use of 2-hour fire separation walls. Buildings
2-4 are 4 stories on a wedge-shaped plinth, which ensures the ground floor remains at the same elevation as the land slopes down. Since Building 1 is at the highest point and didn’t require any additional foundation, we instead utilized the terrain to design a basement underneath with private resident garages. This resulting typology is, in effect, an “Open Donut”. A great deal of effort and energy was put into developing the neighborhood feel. At the primary intersection near the property’s entrance, the building massing is broken up and combined with a connected 2-story structure to create a village ambiance. The end result is a walkable development that has become a welcome addition to the Homewood community.

The Georgetown The Georgetown, nestled in the heart of Rosemary Beach, Florida, is a thoughtfully-designed mixed-use building that serves as the finishing touch of the community’s downtown district. This four-story structure is comprised of nine residences and over 4,000 square feet of prime retail space. Designed in a tropical interpretation of Dutch West Indies architecture, these luxury condominiums seamlessly integrate into the meticulously planned urban landscape. The architectural vocabulary of The Georgetown adheres to stringent guidelines, ensuring it harmonizes flawlessly with its neighbors. The building overlooks a public square, and an intriguing challenge lay in its height: it needed to appear as a
three-story structure when, in fact, it stretches to four. Our solution utilizes a false roof line below the fourth-floor windows, along with sections of unbroken wall planes spanning the bottom three floors. These elements combined create the intended appearance, maintaining the aesthetic continuity. The Georgetown is artfully blended into Rosemary Beach, the intricately-planned community designed by DPZ CoDesign. The 107-acre site along the Gulf of Mexico combines New Urbanism principles, emphasizing walkability and design at the human scale. Rosemary Beach is known for its brick-lined sidewalks, expansive verdant spaces, inspired architecture, boardwalks, cobblestone streets, and walkable town center.

Talison Row Talison Row on Daniel Island in Charleston, South Carolina presented several unique circumstances that created an exciting and rewarding design process. The site is located within the 100-year flood plain adjacent to the historical city and tidal rivers, so we designed Talison Row as a podium structure. This allowed us to shelter vehicles within the flood plain, while simultaneously raising the buildings and mechanical equipment. The podium typology enabled us to meet our density goals and provided interstitial spaces that became wonderful pocket parks, courtyards, and community gardens.
Geologically, Charleston is a seismically active region that requires specific design countermeasures. Talison Row utilizes stone columns and earthquake drains, which dissipate pore pressure during seismic events. Finally, the City of Charleston maintains development guidelines, along with an architectural appearance board that reviews new designs. In order to ensure Talison Row would complement its neighbors, we worked diligently to create a Low Country-style community that met the city’s exacting standards. The result is an architectural expression that feels like a village, with units that take advantage of spectacular views of the tidal Cooper River and Downtown Charleston.
