In this complex, spaces are organized based on their functional and privacy requirements. This division leads to the establishment of three distinct zones: public, semi-public, and private. The allocation of dwelling units to these zones is facilitated by a connected circulation core. The plan incorporates a strategic use of stairs, guiding users to different perpendicular orientations between each zone. This design not only maintains the perception of space but also addresses privacy needs effectively.
Given that various functions within a zone are interrelated and share similar privacy requirements, the zones are not permanently isolated. Instead, sliding elements are integrated to allow for seamless continuity across all functions within one zone or for flexible separation as needed. This approach enhances the adaptability and versatility of the space, catering to diverse requirements and ensuring a cohesive and functional design.
