Project: The Flamingo Apartments
Location: Tacoma, Washington
Client: Dobler Management Company, Inc.
Scope: Major Renovation
Completed: 2020

Originally constructed in the 1060's, these studio apartments were dated and no longer current with market-rate standards. Renovations to the property include significant exterior renovations and unit remodels.

An Art Deco theme was designed into the new work to maintain the "retro" charm to the buildings. By removing the common access stairs and exterior walkway, each unit was able to recieve its own private porch and storage closet. Semi-private stairs were installed at each unit cluster to create a sense of privacy and ownership of space.

On the interior, each unit recieved a new laundry closet and equipment, as well as a complete kitchen remodel and bathroom refresh. Careful reorganization of the studio units resulted in increased usable storage and living space within the existing square footage.
