Urban Symbiosis

Urban Symbiosis is a mixed use supertall development above the 7 Train station in New York City, integrating condos, serviced apartments, and offices. Celebrating the great underground, the subway entrance is placed at the center, offering natural light and 24/7 public access. The design optimizes energy loads by combining office and residential programs, reducing grid pressure. Unlike traditional vertical stacking, a horizontal split forms two towers, creating shared public spaces with amenities like restaurants, co-working areas, and gyms for constant interaction.

The fifteen-storey structure stands on a site of 1,078 square meters, with a building area of 756 square meters. The roof uses a lattice design that turns the form of clouds into a two-dimensional pattern, developed with parametric methods.

A metal installation on the lobby ceiling represents the flow of wind and links the building with nature.
