Tiny Tower Residence places a 1250 SF home on a 12’ by 29’ lot, whose similarly scaled neighbors are currently used as single-car parking and rear yards for the adjacent houses. An expanded section that maximizes height under the zoning code, as well as depth of foundation, creates six levels of usable space. The design promotes vertical living for both indoor and outdoor space, occupying the entire footprint of the site in the required setbacks with a lower level window garden, a second level walk out terrace, and a roof deck.

小塔住宅将一座1250 SF的住宅安置在12英尺乘29‘的地段上，其规模相似的邻居目前被用作相邻房屋的单车停车场和后院。一个扩展的部分，最大限度地利用分区代码下的高度，以及地基的深度，创造了六个层次的可用空间。该设计促进了室内和室外空间的垂直生活，在需要的挫折中占据了整个场地的足迹，包括一个较低层次的窗口花园、一个二级步行平台和一个屋顶甲板。

Although it measures only 38’ in height, Tiny Tower Residence is organized like a full-scale skyscraper. Linked by a strong core of vertical circulation, each level is similar in size and quality, allowing for flexible programming. With a kitchen at the lower level and tucked away bathrooms on upper ones, each floor is free to define live, work and play in multiple configurations. The biggest challenge in a vertical house with a tiny footprint is stair configuration. A folded plate metal stair with winder treads pushed up against the front facade of the building creates a dramatic, light-filled circulation stack that affords surprising views inside and out as well as a sense of adventure for the occupants. The experience of going up and down the stair is integral to the daily life of the building.

尽管它的高度只有38英尺，但小塔式住宅的组织形式就像一座全面的摩天大楼。通过一个强大的垂直循环核心，每个层次在规模和质量上是相似的，允许灵活的规划。有一个厨房在较低的水平，并把浴室放在上层，每一层都可以自由定义生活，工作和娱乐的多种配置。垂直房屋最大的挑战是脚印很小的楼梯结构。一个折叠式板金属楼梯，卷绕踏板被推到建筑物正面，创造了一个戏剧性的，充满光线的循环堆栈，提供令人惊讶的内、外视图，以及一种冒险感的居住者。上上下下的经验是必不可少的日常生活的建筑物。

Urban dwellers are increasingly willing to trade quantity of space for quality. Living in a small unit in a vibrant, walkable neighborhood is more desirable than a larger home in a far-flung location. Tiny Tower Residence demonstrates how small in scale can feel large in amenity and experience.

城市居民越来越愿意用数量的空间换取质量。在一个充满活力的、可步行的社区里住一个小单元比住在偏远地区的一个更大的房子更可取。小塔楼住宅展示了小规模可以感觉到很大的舒适性和体验。
