The Residences at 7th and 7th project is inspired by traditional alpine architecture, featuring a substantial base crafted with cultured stone for stability and visual impact. The base supports lighter timber components, balconies, and diverse roof forms, creating a harmonious interplay of textures and masses. The design seamlessly integrates with the surrounding landscape, establishing a logical progression where the structure becomes lighter as it ascends, aligning with alpine principles and creating a compelling narrative of form and function in harmony with the environment.
