“Clutter the corridor, vacate the house.” We started by looking at the outdated corridor of old New York apartment buildings and how its relationship with our home life has changed. We propose the idea of collecting as living and provide each unit a semi-public corridor for storing and displaying belongings, which liberate the living space in the units. “Build the corridor, build the house.” Structurally, an independent castellated truss system divides the space vertically into living spaces and plenums for infrastructure and storage. And its clear span allows different floor configurations. Corridors function as both connectors and dividers that connect and separate into several different-size units. “Cluttered city, vacant plots” New York suffers from a shortage of housing and storge, while many vacant plots awaiting development. The community garden is an extension of the new structure system integrated into a sloped landscape. We imagine it could serve as foundation for more buildings to be built on top.“
