A design change that aims to unlock housing density

by Frances Bula

Architects Mike Mariano and Grace Kim in the rooftop garden of Capitol Hill Urban Cohousing in Seattle, Wash., where they live with their daughter, on Aug. 10.

Mike Mariano and partner Grace Kim lived for several years in a 12-storey condo project in Seattle’s Belltown neighbourhood, not thrilled with the feel of it.

It was a conventional apartment building, with long, lightless hallways down the middle of each floor, each unit with a window on just one end, building rules that dictated no personalization of any kind on individual doors, and little communication with other residents.
