This project for the People’s Emergency Center in West Philadelphia provides seven units of housing for formerly homeless families consisting of single mothers and their young children.  The building is organized around a semi-public courtyard with front and rear portals that connect to a public garden at the street and a private garden in the back.  Landscape and architecture work together to create a progression from public to private space.
