SOLUTION// the new multi family development of attached townhouse to be for rent in Downey responds to a tough neighborhood and zoning requirements. CEDG is providing full architecture and landscape services.  With a tight budget in mind, and strict zoning requirement we've used a minimal pallet, maximized natural lighting with a 'push + pull' effect of the facade that helps maximize space and privacy.

PROGRAM// single family development

SITE// vacant flag lot. upland, ca.

CLIENT// private

SOLUTION// CEDG was hired to provide full architecture, landscape, + build services.  with sustainable construction methods, a strict budget, and a fast construction time as mandatory parameters, CEDG used containers as a solution.  shipping containers were stacked to creat the structure, eliminating cost and speeding up the delivery process.  a minimal pallet and open plan respond to a beautiful flag pole site. it's a hidden gem within the suburban context.
