Rethinking
Compact Living
Urbaneer Design Philosophy:
Urbaneer designs from the inside out based on the occupant experience. Our designs leverage environmental psychology principles to optimize a living space. Urbaneer believes that Unity is the key design principle for achieving a desirable small space. Architectural plans incorporate Urbaneer interior products as structural design features of the physical space.
Urbaneer Visual Spatial Unity: In a small space, less is more, and it is important to minimize the number of color and materials. Clean lines are also critical to reduce the number of visual distractions. This includes reducing the variation in cabinetry doors and millwork.
Minimalizing shelf surfaces reduces clutter which provides a perception of a larger space. Integrating the same design principles into bathrooms (floating vanities) and laundry rooms (use of vertical space) are also critical elements to keep a unified, cohesive, compact space experience that feels much larger.Building Blocks: With standard layouts and sizes, we still maintain the ability to offer customization. The style, including the color, roof line and siding can be chosen to give the unit the best feel for a given project. Along with style, we have realized the opportunity to combine and arrange modules in a variety of ways based on occupant needs.
