Corteen Place

Corteen Place

Corteen Place is a 16-unit multi-family residential development that aims to maximize density, while creating as much open space as possible for the tenants- both private and public. In order to create a real sense of home, we took the idea of a frontyard and backyard from the traditional Los Angeles house.

The units are organized and carved away so each unit has their own balcony (front yard) and internal courtyard (backyard). By separating the masses and removing units on the top level, we were able to create large, open, communal spaces for all tenants and guests, allowing for a greater sense of community within Corteen Place itself, but also the surrounding neighborhood.
