Sited: 786 Myrtle Ave, Bed-Sty, Brooklyn, NY 11206
is a residential housing project that combines living and work environments. Located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, New York, the project is embedded within a gentrification zone of Brooklyn. The complex focuses on providing workspace for entrepreneurs and artisans. It is composed of vertical and horizontal L-shape units that stack and orient in alternate directions. 
The site restricts the overall building composition. However, the L-shaped units allow for a staggering pattern to occur. The units can mirror in both horizontal and vertical directions, interrupting the seamlessness of the parcel rectangle. 
Located on Myrtle- Willoughby Avenue in Bed Sty, NY. The Brooklyn neighborhood is mainly residential.
