Shifting Terraces

Located in Kaunas, the project combines housing with a waterfront promenade. Designed around a modular 8x8m grid, it ensures flexibility and efficient construction. The architecture’s varied façade and cascading form tie together industrial context, natural landscape, and contemporary living.

The design focuses on dual orientation, daylight, and ventilation for every apartment, creating homes that balance privacy and openness. The terraces act as extensions of living spaces, forming a continuous topography of gardens, balconies, and community areas overlooking the river.

A rhythmic façade composition adds depth and texture, reflecting the neighborhood’s industrial heritage while expressing lightness and modernity. The project reconnects residents with the waterfront, framing a new urban identity that values both human comfort and environmental performance.
