SPRING Design + Architecture revolutionizes urban living with an ambitious microhousing project in New York, merging eco-friendly design with luxury modern living. This visualization showcases the innovative approach to affordable urban housing, emphasizing sustainability, and maximizing limited space while fostering a vibrant community ethos.

Our three prototypes redefine micro-apartments: The first, a sleek, transit-accessible high-rise, caters to the on-the-go city dweller. The second, blending timeless style with modern amenities like a communal pool, offers a serene retreat at the city’s edge. The third, an avant-garde micro-home, introduces a scalable concept for suburban living.

We did extensive visualization including renderings, marketing books, and floor plans and elevations for a new construction of a Micro housing apartment building, and Micro homes. Housing for affordable and mixed income.

The apartment building is a Three-story, approximately 50 apartment units in the micro scale ranging from 250 square foot studios to 350 to 500 square feet one bedrooms and convertible two bedrooms. Also includes parking, drop-off, bicycle access, main lobby and seating, office with wi-fi and social media connection, resident recreation space, community room rooftop, workout gym, bicycle room, laundry, trash, and superintendent on grounds, as well as bicycle storage and other storage and amenity space. Spring Architecture + Design has worked on three different design prototypes so far to spearhead this project that is on the horizon: a modern metropolitan building close to a transit line within city’s reach; a contemporary classic building with pool and communal grounds within biking distance to public transportation from the outer regions of the metropolitan area; and a singular free standing micro home for a potential block of micro houses in a more suburban setting outside the city. The chosen building will be the prototype and model for other micro housing apartments needed around the country.

The Microhomes are singular homes, two types are designed: one bedroom 450 sq ft or less, and a studio space of 250 sq ft or less. The homes are super-efficient spaces that are designed in an attractive, modern aesthetic. They include all necessary living items: kitchen, bathroom, sleeping area, lounge area, and outdoor space. We designed a visual package of realistic renderings, a marketing book, plans, elevations, and 3d physical models of these homes. They are designed for build and are a prototype for upscale looking, high quality build, yet affordable living given its small in nature, sustainable, efficient architecture.
