Project Description:
Located in Art District, LA, the Mateo House is a social housing program that strives to provide dwellings with high individuality as well as to give people a sense of ownership. Balcony space embedded in each unit defines the interior layout and allows the residents to have outdoor livings in their own units while privacy is highly protected. Aside from the residential units, public facilities including lobby, community space, daycare, and laundry are on the ground floor, and smaller public spaces scattering in each story are shared by the residents as well.
