Copley at Crown meshes eclectic styles and optimizes important access points through its location, creating a context-focused and timeless design around mixed-use conveniences. Texture and material choice add playfulness for human visual interest.
Brick and mortar choice were carefully selected for enhancement of the industrial aesthetic, with added brick detailing and murals with a washed paint look to cement the industrial design. Completing the industrial adaptive reuse style, elevators blend in as chimney stacks, like those found in industrial factories. Additionally, the profile of balconies were specifically designed bolted to the structure, aiding in the complete adaptive reuse look. The adaptive reuse-inspired industrial design aesthetic flows throughout every detail, continuing into the interior. Units feature window formatting, maximizing natural light with uniform proportions, brick interior detailing, and an outdoor space for every unit.
