Quote from the architect/owner: With the Monad project we set out to design what is urgently needed for urban infill developments: A systematic and holistic approach to make multi-story urban living beautiful, desirable, sustainable and affordable. This led us to a process where we had to rethink everything that is essential to urban development, design, construction and long term operation. And that meant we could then design the very best housing model for today, as a flexible platform that can co-evolve and be adapted to the ever-changing needs, visions and futures.
