R2L: Architects - Project Proposal 

Washington, DC

This is a six-story, 28 unit apartment building proposal along the north end of the 14th street corridor in Washington, DC. 14th street has been a hot bed for development in the past years. This project plans to add to the quality of the urban neighborhood by providing ground floor retail, as well as a streetscape and facade that draws inspiration from the eclectic storefronts and masonry building tradition of the adjacent existing buildings. The rooftop includes an outdoor amenity space for the tenants as well as two penthouse units with private terraces. A green roof system is incorporated to manage storm water as well mitigate the urban heat island effect.   

Proposal responsibilities included facade design, unit layout, presentation drawing preparation and renderings for 2D plans and elevations.
