The Peaks is a multi-family unit housing project
located in North Scottsdale by Pinnacle Peak. The
main goal of this project was to provide a well equipped
community for the working-class families
that serve the wealthy population in this area. To that
extent, we decided to implement some of the missing
amenities in that area including a gym, business
Center, Community Learning Center and day care.
Throughout the site there are different moments
designed to encourage community both among the
residents as well as the general public. Apart from
community, the other goal of this project was to create
units that take advantage of the surrounding scenery
and provide simple strategies to accommodate
working families. As a result, each home is provided
with parking directly beneath their unit. Additionally,
each unit is elevated from the ground to look over
surrounding homes and positioned to directly face
one of the two mountain ranges surrounding the site.
