A retrospective look at the Rain Garden Apartments
[Reinvigorate] human activity in a devoid downtown setting by offering up urban options in the burgeoning small town atmosphere of Winter Haven, Florida.
• Multiplied by nine modern units.
• Begged for by the spirit of human hope.
• Weaved into individual dwellings as well as public surroundings.
We’ve reinvigorated both people and place with this new ‘first in three decades’ multi-family mainstay. A bold expression of regional modernism showcasing randomized vertical fins which adapt the building to both site and climate by offering shade and privacy. A sense of openness assists the expression of generosity back to the city. The architecture is both modest and striking—not an easy combination of qualities to achieve.
