Located in Seattle’s University District neighborhood, this five-story, thirty-unit apartment building relies on simple, economical design moves to elevate the living experience for the residents and set it apart from typical, efficient market-rate apartments. Leveraging a yin-yang visual aesthetic, the building makes the most out of a little.
