The working title for this project was Plan Without Qualities for although this proposal has many qualities they are not the usual ones. The plan is entered at the middle because of the half flights of stairs either up or down accessing the door. There is no dedicated internal circulation space. Outside the kitchen and bathroom windows is a light and air shaft.
The access corridors are therefore displaced half a flight vertically so that there is still the awareness of people moving around the buildings. Having half the number of access corridors as external space ought to bring some construction economies and improve the 'sociability' of the building when compared with single aspect apartments off a double-loaded corridor.
