Coleman Triplex
3,800 sf owner-occupied three-unit apartment building SITE A 40’ X 100’ inner-city lot that slopes eight feet from west to east. The property has views of downtown Seattle across a park that lies both to the east and north. To allow each dwelling to inhabit a specific portion of the site, the sloping topography was reshaped into two distinct levels. DESIGN The design was informed by four primary considerations: - economy of space within strict land use limitations - variations in individual dwelling program and configuration - direct access to landscape and exterior space - exploration of the exterior cladding screen
