MI-104 Modern Residence
Contemporary three-story residence featuring framed balcony design and sophisticated architectural lighting
Project Overview
The MI-104 Modern Residence exemplifies contemporary residential design through its innovative "framed living" concept. This three-story residence demonstrates how architectural elements can be composed to create both functional spaces and striking visual statements that enhance the urban landscape.
The design philosophy centers around the distinctive framed balcony - a signature element that serves multiple purposes: providing outdoor living space, creating architectural interest, and establishing a strong visual identity for the residence. The integration of greenery within this frame adds a natural element that softens the contemporary lines.
Completed in 2022, this 2300 square foot residence showcases how vertical living can be both efficient and elegant, providing ample space for modern family life while maintaining a compact footprint that respects the neighborhood context.
