OVERVIEWThe apartment building consists of 100 units designed for persons over 50 years of age situated in the west of Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The apartments are to offer a higher degree of independence than is usual in homes for the elderly, and could in the future also accommodate younger residents. The design of the building was evolved around the existing local regulations, yet giving itself a striking presence in the street.
DESIGN CONCEPT & PRINCIPLESThe building is located in a city context where green spaces are threatened with increasing occupation density. It is in such a context that conservation of ground floor open and green spaces becomes the challenge for designated density to be achieved.
The building design evolved around the current zoning envelope and the north-south orientation of the building which allows 87 of the 100 apartment units to be built in a single block.
The remaining 13 units are therefore suspended from the north facade of the block to minimize the coverage of the ground floor space and to receives sunlight on its east or west facade. The suspension strategy of some apartment units renders the building with a design resolution uniquely of its own

MODULAR STANDARDIZATIONThis built project case study illustrates the architect’s valuable design thinking within the framework of local restrictions. Firstly the local regulations do not permit to build north-facing apartments. The alternative strategy of east-west orientation is certainly not beneficial in terms of solar heat gain and the shape of the building site. The resultant site planning strategy is therefore a north-south oriented, single-loaded corridor building block. Each apartment units are south-facing and accessed from the corridor on the north.
On the other hand, the modular approach of apartment units is a standard yet straight forward solution to the mid-rise or high-rise housing project. The standardization of apartment units is achieved while the monolithic volumes appears being dissolved. The character of the building whether it being seen from the street or from a far distance has surfaced from the timber-clad suspension units. These units become the focus of the building while bringing the scale down to a more domestic one. It is therefore a balance between standardization and customization in which economic efficiency and urban quality are integrated. Although one might argue the trade off of economic efficiency, such a trade off can only be considered valid numerically if the quality of the environment, including visual excitement and building coverage, is not at all a determinant factor. Integrated approach of quality and efficiency is the only value added resolution towards all the construction aspects.
CUSTOMIZATIONAll in all, the simple strategy of modular apartment units is value added with the suspension timber-clad boxes which not only render the development compliant with the local regulations but also dissolve the monolithic scale and add character to the building. The value of the design solution contribute further onto the streetscape with its distinctive form and character while establish once again a relationship between building and street. It is all these values that justified the balance between standardization and customization.

Pictured on this page: Views of 1/8” = 1’ 0” scale model of Wozoco.
Wozoco is interesting in that it allows for maximum floor area ratio, kept construction costs at a minimum and still managed to create an interesting space within a tight program to house elderly people. MVDRV designed Wozoco with the density restrictions in mind and was able to incorporate these zoning restrictions into the con-cept of the hanger and achieved what they were commissioned to do. The 1/8” scale model was built to illustrate the seemingly random configuration of the windows and the proportion of the hangers to the main structure.

Site located between school district #19 and #23
While education is improving, the conditions of school buildings as well as the performance of students in district #19 and #23 are the worst in Brooklyn and among the worst in New York City. This cannot be attrib-uted to a lack of certified teachers or insufficient funds; as for the latter, these two districts share some of the highest expenditures per student in the city.

SITE ANALYSIS
architecture studio iv: familiesthe school of the art institute of chicago
east new york site analysislivonia avenue, brooklyn ny RETAIL
Clothing Stores
Thrift Stores
Hardware Stores
Retail, as expected, is clustered together in certain areas. Clothing stores congregate around the intersection of Pitken and Rockaway Avenue approximately 12 to 15 blocks away from the center of the site. Thrift stores are dispersed evenly across the area of study with a store only one block north of the site area. Hardware stores are clustered in the north-central area of study while others are located on the east/southeastern part of the area of study. The location tendencies of these retail buildings show that there is not one particular area of interest for the Livonia Avenue site.
architecture studio iv: familiesthe school of the art institute of chicago
east new york site analysislivonia avenue, brooklyn ny MEDICAL FACILITIES
Hospitals
Clinics
Medical care seems to be high on the priority list for the Brownsville/East New York area. There is a major hospital just off the area of study to the South-West. Other medical facilities tend to reside around the Livonia Avenue site, and off the main avenue thoroughfairs. Clinics tendancies are the opposite. They locate themselves around the main avenues and major intersections. There seems to be enough medical facilities near the Livonia Avenue site and no need for more.

Churches & Religious Affiliations
Libraries
Grade Schools
High Schools
Schools The Livonia Avenue site lies within walking distance of several educational and religious facilities. While that statement is true, there seems to be a Òv oidÓ of services directly adjacent to the site. To the west of Rockaway Avenue and east of Pennsylvania Avenue, there is seemingly a religious facility every other block. By contrast, from the center of the Livonia site, these facilities generally lie several blocks away. High schools lie furthest away from the site and there is a possible need for a facility around or within the Livonia Avenue site area.
architecture studio iv: familiesthe school of the art institute of chicago
east new york site analysislivonia avenue, brooklyn ny CULTURAL AMENITIES
Gyms
Restaurants
Bars
Fitness and nightlife can help promote and nourish a community. Unfortunately, these amenities remain absent from the immediate area of study. People living with the Brownsville/East New York area are serviced by only one gym and one bar, each about a mile from the Livonia site. There also seems to be a Òv oidÓ of restaurants in the Livonia Avenue area. Residents of the area need to travel an average of 7 blocks before encountering their first restaurant. All of the amenities in this study are recommended for development in the Livonia Avenue site area.

SITE ANALYSIS
architecture studio iv: familiesthe school of the art institute of chicago
east new york site analysislivonia avenue, brooklyn ny OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES
Basketball Courts
Parks
Pools
Outdoor activities provide opportunities for residents to get out of the house and lead healthier lives. There is a sizable collection of basketball courts and parks in the eastern area of study. Also, there are only two public pools, one to the north and one to the west of Livonia Avenue. Interestingly, the focus of activities tend to concentrate east of Pennsylvania Avenue. Between Rockaway Avenue and Pennsylvania Avenue, there is a lack of outdoor activities. This may be due to the fact that the border of two districts (Brownsville and East New york) lies in between these Avenues and the area lies on the Òe dgeÓ of development activity. New residents of the Livonia site will need more opportunities for outdoor activities.

east new york site analysislivonia avenue, brooklyn ny TRAFFIC FREQUENCY - 12pm
Fast Speed
Medium Speed
Slow SpeedTraffic in this Brooklyn neighborhood is what can be expected of the big city experience. This traffic model, shown for lunch-time, describes how the major avenues through the area of study generally have a moderate density. There is enough traffic to keep people at safe speeds but not create a hassle for drivers. Pennsylvania Avenue offers the path of least resistance for travel North and South. Pitkin Avenue between Rockaway and Pennsylvania Avenue is the worst area of traffic. The pattern that emerges from this diagram is that East-West travel is considerably more congested than North-South travel.

east new york site analysislivonia avenue, brooklyn ny FOOD STORES
Grocery Stores
Bakery
Farmers Market
The number of food stores in a given area typically give clues as to the population density of that given area. Here in the Brownsville/East New York area, a resident does not need to walk more than 5 blocks before encountering a food provider. Grocery stores and deliÕs make up a majority of these food providers. Bakeries tend to be more spread out with clusters forming on the perimeter of the area of study. Fortunately, most grocery stores contain bakeries within them creating less of a priority for specialty bakery stores. There is only one farmers market within walking distance, but it occurs near the boundary of the area of study.
architecture studio iv: familiesthe school of the art institute of chicago
east new york site analysislivonia avenue, brooklyn ny COMMUNITY BUILDINGS
Homeless Shelters
Police Stations
Post Offices
Government Buildings and shelters lack a strong presence in the Brownsville/East New York area. There is only one homeless shelter within the 1.5 mile radius of the site, but it is only two streets north of Livonia Avenue. Police stations are found on an East-West axis, approximately every 15 blocks. Their even disbursement suggests an area of high crime rate. The Livonia Avenue site is only 3 blocks south of the closest police station. Finally, there is surprisingly only one post office within the area of study. Perhaps there is a need for a post office on site.

The Urban Art Museum is designed to establish a cultural center/artist residence building within the currently de-pressed neighborhood of East New York. The idea is that by constructing a building that serves as a landmark it will draw visitors from other parts of town and boost the local economy, kick-starting a neighborhood revitalization. Being focused specifically on urban art, the center fills a gap in a booming art scene and gives many young artists a safe place to not only live and work, but focus their creative energies toward.
