Four major typologies, spread across the 18 buildings of cube housing project, create a sense of place and community while managing to evade indistinguishably.

Each apartment unit of cube housing, has a double-height balcony. Doing so allows the extension of family activities to a semi-outdoor space, and enables the creation of vertical gardens.
