This project involved the interior renovation of a 60’s high-rise rental apartment building while it was fully occupied. The parameters of the design required materials to be affordable and durable, as well as easily maintained. For example, a random assortment of carpet tiles not only meant that a stained tile could be easily removed, but also could be replaced with a tile of a different dye lot, pattern, or colour.
Scope: 16 floors – corridors
