social housing

The tree-unit project located in Brovary near Kyiv . The presented challenge was to design dwelling unit for two families and two accessory dwelling units, each for two families with private outdoor spaces and parking, all on a compact footprint to fit a tight lot.

The total area of one house for two families is 390 m2. Each house has a parking lot and a courtyard. On the 1st floor, there is a living area with a kitchen, living room, dining room and a terrace overlooking the courtyard. On the 2nd floor and on the 3rd floor, there are bedrooms, while on the 4th floor there is a rooftop terrace. The houses have flexible layouts and can be adapted based on the needs of the residents.

The main rooms are located on the courtyard side. The facades are oriented to the west and to the east, which is a favorable orientation in the summer. Special attention was paid during the design to the preservation of the existing trees on the site.
