4V

4V - This abbreviation is a combination of words and it reflects my idea - new version, view, vegetation, Vernon, which generally means new version and view for Vernon with vegetation.
The construction site was chosen the territory of the former New York architectural terracotta factory in 1892.
With this project, I propose to rethink the free section of the embankment and focus on creating a sustainable and comfortable living environment.
One of the conditions for the issuance of the LEED certificate should be a dense built-up area of the territory and the possibility of re-use of the abandoned land. After analyzing all the sites in the area, I came to the conclusion that they all converge to a rectangular shape with a patio and a pointed angle.
I divided the site into functional blocks, which consist of: a residential block, a pre-uk children's center, an auditorium with a capacity of 300 people, an organic market, including an automatic parking and a family pool.
All forms comply with the principles of multi-comfort.
The first sailors landed on this territory, therefore now this project symbolizes a big ship.
Neighborhood is the main component of a comfortable and sustainable LEED environment. Terraces (from the inside of the courtyard) are freely available for residents of the house on each floor. Such terraces unite all residents together.
According to the task, it was necessary to come up with a separate entrance for residents, so such a cozy courtyard was formed for them. The entrances rise like the bow of a ship. Including the first floor – a shopping area where there is everything you need.

Triangular modules - their shape doesn't prevent the passage of light in the apartment. This includes mini-gardens in your home and protection from noise, including a natural cleaner of polluted air.
Since this is the first place for sailors, let’s imagine that this person raises his first stone in this place. This gives rise to a cube shape for the entrance group and automatic parking. So from the side of Vernon Street, the building takes on a historical view.
Due to the collection of rainwater, greenhouses are irrigated, including used for recycling. Greenhouses serve as an alternative place of work for the elderly and not only residents and this people selling products in their own market for organic products.
