22 alternative energy apartments 24,000 sf, 4 stories, Type V Podium garage: 22 spaces 65th St. @ Hollis St., Emeryville Shamszad Development
A south facing passive solar lobby with operable ventilation and deep metal sunshades places a glass garden of perception that binds the street to the building.
Three floors of apartments rise above a shared parking lot on a small urban infill parcel. Recessed windows to the west and a penthouse level photovoltaic system complete our standard combination of passive and active alternative energy systems. Two “garden blocks” flank an elevator cylinder at the glass box stair lobby to deliver a clear diagram of the building’s circulation and operation. |
