The project, located in a performing arts center has been developed as a water tower that houses six single occupancy units. The design expresses a conversation between the two components of the project - Services and Social interactions. This is achieved through a play between axes where water is carried vertically focusing on efficiency whereas social interaction is seen as this dynamic presence wrapping around the vertical axis to create a horizontal, or rather a diagonal relationship. It uses steel and concrete to create the main frame of the structure, allowing the design to evolve horizontally and remain lightweight.
