Flex Walls at Park87

by on Aug.10, 2010, under TocciNews

One of the unique features at Park87 (Tocci’s modular residential project in down town Cambridge, MA) is the flexibility of individual unit layouts, facilitated by what the team has dubbed “flex walls.”

Flexible layouts were an early goal for the owner; these walls had to be designed and executed so that residents could re-arrange certain walls almost as easily as they would re-arrange furniture. Although the final detail doesn’t allow for daily adjustment of wall location, the team configured utilities and infrastructure so that walls could be arranged and re-arranged in one of 18+ configurations.

Check out this animation of a few of the different configurations.
