This mixed used Timber building in midtown Atlanta promotes sustainability and healthy living by incorporating Passive Design Strategies.

Concept:

Nature + Built Spaces = Interweaving Spaces

This world was all nature and forest at the beginning, cutting it down we started creating concrete jungles. This design is an effort to create harmony between nature and built spaces. Interweaving both of the aspect will create a balance and healthy environment suitable for living in an urban space. Following the modular grid pattern will make the full use of building at its all potential. Layering up the floors will open up an opportunity to interweave and merge the public and the private spaces by creating small green pockets.

Design Strategies:

Considering the site and site surrounding and merging the green space from the surrounding open ground and blending it with the site, designing the ground floor with semi open spaces to get nature into the site area.
