CITY HOMES

City Homes was a collaborative effort between the Architect of Record, SWD Architects, Inc., and the Design Architect Shears Adkins Architects. This project consists of 27 detached single-family loft-style homes wwith two different floor plans; a large "B House", and a slightly smaller "C House."

This development is a new concept in single family housing. These homes are for people who want to own a residence in a dense urban environment, but don't want to live in a condominium building where they share walls, ceilings, and/or floors with their neighbors. This concept was translated into the design with the use of clean lines, high ceilings, tall doors, stucco, king-sized brick, large banks of windows and flat roofs; all qualities indicative of an urban loft.

Both houses are two story homes with unfinished basements. Both have 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. The "B House" has almost 3,200 square feet of interior space. In addition, it has a 300-square-foot rooftop terrace and a 730-square-foot ground level patio. The "C House" has slightly less than 2,500 square feet of interior space. This house also includes two rooftop terraces totaling 300 square feet and a 260-square-foot ground level patio.
