MINT by Wood Marsh Architecture, January 2017

To see MINT as the architects intended, visit Wood Marsh Architecture.

This project consists of 16 apartments spread across four floors. Interest is added to the facade with green-tinted glass and a custom mould for the precast panels.  The light effects from the glass facade were created using EDGE Architectural Glazing. There is no underground basement. Car stackers are used for car parking.

To see the marketing campaign for MINT apartments visit Sense Creative Agency.
