The Mountain Dwellings are the 2nd generation of the VM Houses (same client, same size and same street). The program, however, is 2/3 parking and 1/3 living.

What if the parking area became the foundation of the homes –like a concrete hillside covered by a thin layer of housing, cascading from the 1st to the 11th floor? Rather than doing two separate buildings next to each other –a parking and a housing block– the architects decided to merge the two functions into a symbiotic relationship. The parking area needs to be connected to the street and the homes require sunlight, fresh air and a view, thus all apartments have roof gardens facing the sun, amazing views and street parking on the 10th floor.
