300 Hamilton, Plymouth MI

This project is a brownfield redevelopment project approximately 40,000 Sq. Ft. and has 27 loft style units. 300 Hamilton was developed while the residential market started to cool so keeping costs down while creating beautiful, sophisticated spaces was the number one priority. The "occupyable truss" was one design innovation that we developed to find extra space in the development where we would have otherwise not had enough head room with a traditional truss structure. Using laminated lumber trusses and stretching them down we were able to create mezzanine level space in all of the 3rd floor units, thus creating the "Library Lofts" seen in the images.
