The design began with two rectangular volumes aligned with the existing street grid and adjacent buildings. A central section was then removed to optimize lighting conditions, transforming the space into a courtyard that links the bustling Burnside Street with the more serene SW Alder Street, offering tenants enhanced privacy.
