Cambridge Studio
Josep Luis Sert’s Peabody Terrace (photograph) is a defining element on the Cambridge bank of the Charles River. As Harvard University develops new student and family housing next to this landmark, it is interesting to imagine alternatives that respond to Sert’s innovative design, without imitating it. The design is a complex of four residential towers that rise from a shared ground floor with commercial and public space. Moving inward and upward, the spaces become sequentially more private, from stores and offices to semi-private terraces and courtyards and finally the individual units.
