As a solution to the growing economy in Hong Kong, Y Design Office<\/strong>\u00a0conceptualizes\u00a0a masterplan for “Unit Fusion<\/strong>“\u2014a 75-story vertical tower comprised\u00a0of prefabricated modules that\u00a0are both customizable and movable.<\/p>\n

\"Unit<\/a><\/p>\n

As with clothing, the units\u2014made of\u00a0cubic modules with 8.5 foot dimensions on each side\u2014are available in simple sizes ranging from XS to XL. By configuring the sliding modules in different ways, the tenant can customize the apartment’s\u00a0kitchen, bathroom, balcony, and entryway.<\/p>\n

Another novel element of the “Unit Fusion” proposal is that every five years\u2014for\u00a0a total of six times throughout its estimated 30-year life cycle\u2014each complete unit would\u00a0be moved to another zone in\u00a0the tower, thereby giving its\u00a0tenants a new view, along with new social connections and\u00a0living experience.<\/p>\n

Each of the 75 floors would have “sky-gardens,” and there would be social\/meeting areas\u2014”sky-lobbies”\u2014on every five floors. All of the tower’s tenants would share the immense sky garden on the top floor. \u00a0A neighborhood feel would be created with a variety of cafes, retail spaces and entertainment complexes scattered throughout the tower.<\/p>\n

The architects said in a statement, “The ambition is a new alternative high-rise residential typology, in which its inhabitants are given unique units and allocations in accordance to specific zoning strategy within a tower structure, thus creating a phenomenal living experience through bonding and acquiring needs by each and every single individual. It is a re-interpretation of the balance between genericity and specificity aiming at formulating an extraordinary democratic living concept.”<\/p>\n
