Adapt Micro Units

GF provided architectural design services for HoMeCuBeD, a 10-story, 63-unit residential building within a tight 34,060 SF footprint. The apartments were conceived as stackable “bricks,” creating uniformity and minimizing irregular conditions, while the building envelope erodes at the top to comply with zoning, bring natural light to upper floors, and introduce outdoor spaces.

The gridded façade expresses the efficient interior layout, and floor-to-ceiling glass maximizes natural light for tenants. At roughly 300 SF each, the apartments respond to the needs of single urban professionals, offering flexible spaces that adapt to living, dining, and sleeping requirements. Beds fold up, tables tuck away, and sliding walls reveal or conceal storage, allowing residents to program their space according to their lifestyle. HoMeCuBeD exemplifies GF’s commitment to innovative, efficient, and adaptable urban living solutions.
