With its serial pattern and clean dipartite formal composition capped with semi-transparent bi-facial photovoltaic solar canopies that provide shade for roof decks as well as over 3000 kwh electricity generation per year for each unit, these townhouse are designed to incite excitement and a sense of optimism for sustainable future.
