209 Ninth Street
South of Market is full of two and three story concrete warehouse buildings. As the Planning Department up-zones this neighborhood, the possibility of adding on to these buildings exists. This project explores the juxtaposition of the new and the old, adding two stories of pitched-roof residential space above the three stories of office and commercial. The project is inspired by the way these new pop-up additions can be seen across the roofscape of SOMA. We designed the addition as a pixilated cloud seen against the sky.
Beautiful stairs
