This 100-unit, 280-bed housing project was privately developed to accommodate students at nearby UC Berkeley. The five-story building consists of four levels of RES accommodation above a tall ground floor, which contains a lobby, a movie theatre, retail, and parking. Upper floors are arranged around a landscaped courtyard. There are several different unit types responding to site conditions and the special needs of student tenants. The basic unit contains two bedrooms and a living/dining area, kitchen, and bathroom. The two bedrooms interlock in such a way as to create an articulated building facade with deep recesses, breaking down the scale of the elevation. The building's architectural design reinterprets the Art Deco tradition found in other downtown Berkeley structures.
