Experience Unique Multi-Family Living at AMLI South Lake Union II
Project's Summary
AMLI South Lake Union II: A Unique Multi-Family Residence
AMLI South Lake Union II is a multi-family residence that is part of the evolving South Lake Union neighborhood. Designed by GGLO, this residential community is a unique project that focuses on the character of its location and residents, while also bridging both phases of the development.
The design of AMLI SLU II is based on the growing movement towards low-tech craft. GGLO and AMLI partnered together to create a residence that offers unique amenities that are informed by the needs of those who live in the neighborhood. These amenities are not typically seen in a multi-family setting, and they begin to solve the challenges of living in an apartment lifestyle. Urban density no longer limits your options for creative outlets and pursuits - there is now a space dedicated to these activities that brings together a new group of residents that is energized by tactile hobbies.
The utility kitchen and the plywood-clad workshop are two of the unique amenities that AMLI SLU II offers. These 'raw' spaces provide access to tools and equipment such as Shop-Vacs and air compressors, among other devices. The utility kitchen is inspired by the growing 'slow-food' movement and provides easy access to space and products for activities such as canning and home-brewing. These amenities are designed to appeal to the needs of those who live in the neighborhood and offer a unique living experience that is not commonly found in other multi-family residences.
AMLI SLU II is centrally focused, with many of the entrances and amenities facing towards an outdoor covered courtyard at street level. An upper-level solarium is a beacon to the neighborhood and acts as a refuge, providing views of the city and Lake Union. This space is for reflective observation of the neighborhood that is the development's namesake. A lush green wall offers a connection to the outside views of Lake Union while suspended swing chairs provide a relaxing place to soak in the beautiful scenery.
In conclusion, AMLI South Lake Union II is a unique multi-family residence that offers amenities that are designed to appeal to the needs of those who live in the neighborhood. The design of this residence is based on the growing movement towards low-tech craft and offers a unique living experience that is not commonly found in other multi-family residences. GGLO's integrated design for AMLI SLU II bridges both phases of the development and focuses on a cohesive vision that is based on the character of its location and residents.
