One of the major themes that SPG Architects is interested in is modular construction as a cost-effective and environmentally sustainable means. SPG brings this modular constructioin to NYC's affordable housing crisis context to propose alternative way to construct urban fabric. The project is a small multi-family building which is inserted in urban streetscapes. SPG sees each floor unit as a module, and by stacking the prefabricated modules, the project provides cost-effective construction.
The ground floor is designed for shared community facilities, with one module containing public services oriented toward the street, and the second containing residents’ common area that is oriented toward the shared garden. The scheme maximizes FAR for the site but a modern curving and dynamic outdoor fire escape provides both egress and access to shared outdoor living areas at the garden and roof levels.
