43rd & Division

SE Division Street has seen a boom of new structures in the last 2 years along its long neglected, 1 to 2 story storefront lined spine. The new developments have created an entirely new scale of street wall. Responding to the development team's desire for maximum glazing at the street frontage, this 23 unit mixed-use building examines the nature of the modernist glass box, allowing the quick daily weather cycles nine months of the year, and the resulting fluctuating light conditions, to create a shimmering of seen and unseen grids to create a dynamically responsive façade.
