The Juan Apartment is located in infill site with 37 meters in length and 7 meters in width. The municipality rule minimize the program to 4 stores residential building which is located in 60% area of the north side of the site.

Unit A assigned to the family living, the unit B assigned to an apartment unit for rent which may will use for dental Clinic or a showroom for dental instrument and devices in the future, and unit C assigned for guest who come from another city to visit the family and stay in their apartment for a few days. To meet the clients need, designer decided to design three units which rise among together instead of designing three flat units. Beside, Due to narrow width of the site and lighting matter the units integrated between together in height.Placing on top of each other (unit A as a triplex and unit and B as a duplex unit) make maximum efficiency of space and direct lighting for each unit. All units benefit the direct lighting from southern façade.

The patio at the end north of the site make lighting possible for bedrooms. Also the skylight make direct lighting for pri vate hall at the second floor of the unit A. Besides, by changing the height level in each unit, the private part is isolated from the public part. The void between these two parts is distinguished by changing the material. Complicated integrated space of the apartment making it too unique to sell in the future. Designer decided to use separated steel structure for void which will be modified easier than concrete one. By this decision, these three separated duplex, triplex and flat units will transform to three separated flat units. In the future.
