Apartment Design
Residential unit and multi-family building design, from compact micro-apartments to renovations and speculative communal housing concepts.
Apartment design covers the planning, layout, and detailing of dwelling units within multi-family buildings, where floor area, light, circulation, and shared infrastructure are tightly constrained. Designers working on apartments balance efficient plans with livability, adapting to dense urban sites, varied climates, and changing household needs.
Community work under this topic ranges from built projects in cities such as Rosario, Mumbai, and Brasília to speculative concepts for vertical villages, modular cities, and shared-island housing. Members document both finished interiors and renovations alongside experimental proposals for how apartments might group, connect, and grow.
