Erläuterungstext
Buildings and site features are organized on an orthogonal grid that morphs according to environmental, programmatic and spatial requirements. One enters the site through a public green market that uses long-span timber to create a place for community engagement.
The Early Childhood Education Center and Community Wellness Center provide a foundation for the residential towers above.
Residential units, which consist of assembled CLT panels, stack and rotate around concrete cores with shared ëTree Balconiesí that provide shaded gathering spaces. Passive fresh air ventilation, 6î thick insulation, gray water reclamation and triple glazed windows that meet green building standards all contribute to the regenerative life goals of the project.
Each apartment is designed to optimize natural light, air, and views, encouraging residents to interact with each other and nature on shared balconies and garden floors. Outdoor activities focused on health and well-being like gardening, exercising, and meditation help to foster friendships and community growth. Re-Gen Growth is built of CLT, mass timber and some steel columns. The CLT panels may be delivered by boat to further reduce the buildingís carbon footprint. The ground floor programs use glue-lam post and beam construction in order to achieve longer spans and column free spaces.
The sequential growth of the development provides ample space for on-site assembly, cranes and storage of construction materials during the first phases of construction.
