A striking example of modern urban living, Renton I, also known as The Landing Apartments, redefines the multi-family residential typology in Renton, Washington. The project seamlessly integrates a high-density living environment with a thoughtful, pedestrian-friendly design.
Comprising two five-story low-rise buildings, this 440-unit complex achieves a harmonious balance between scale and accessibility. A key architectural decision was to place all residential buildings atop a two-story, covered parking structure with controlled access. This approach not only maximizes the available land but also strategically separates vehicular and pedestrian flow, creating a safer and more serene environment at ground level. The result is a dynamic living space that prioritizes human experience, all while being anchored in a functional and efficient structural solution. Renton I is a testament to how intelligent design can elevate a large-scale housing project into a vibrant community hub.
