RED DOOR

Tacoma, Washington

Red Door is a multi-family mid-rise project that focuses on developing community within the building footprint through exterior circulation paths that overlook a large central courtyard. Additionally, the program called for a pre-school located on the first level to better serve the working families who may live in and around this building. The material palette focused on natural materials, especially where residents may interact with them within the unit and circulation spaces. Balconies were designed for all units, due to the lack of exterior private space in other buildings, setting this project apart.
