Kozo House.
Japanese garden, brutalist bones, on three levels.
Live Modal asked for a collection of outdoor experiences that form a major part of the daily life of Kozo House residents, a “welcoming and magical place” that brings joy, with new and inventive ideas that reinvent downtown living in Salt Lake City. The big idea composes modern, Japanese garden-inspired, structured spaces on three levels: the streetscape, the podium amenity deck, and the rooftop, drawn round after round on paper before the walk in 3D. Magic, it turns out, doesn’t arrive in one draft.

The first marks on paper, before the plan settled.
One drawing that puts the whole outdoor program on the table before anything is modelled in 3D.
Every view below is the concept as we drew it, walked before anything was built.

Make the space between the buildings count.
On a mixed-use or multifamily project, the outdoor amenity is the room that leases the building. Bring us in before value engineering gets to it, and we’ll help you protect it.
