San Fernando Project - Multifamily
This project is a high-density, multi-family development designed to maximize urban efficiency. Utilizing a 35% density bonus (per 12.22.A.25), the building achieves an allowable FAR of 4.05:1, providing a total Proposed Building Area of 55,097 SF on a compact 12,415 SF footprint. Notably, the design omits traditional parking area (0 SF) to prioritize livable square footage and transit-oriented density.
The architectural intent centers on a high-efficiency “spine” layout. The floor plan reveals a rhythmic arrangement of residential units flanking a central corridor, ensuring structural clarity and equitable access to natural light.
PROCESS
C2A supported the client by leading BIM modeling and comprehensive project documentation, delivering complete Design Development (DD), Construction Documents (CD), and permit drawing sets. Additionally, C2A conducted unit-by-unit coordination across all unit types, systematically reviewing and tracking issues through structured reports to ensure seamless alignment between architectural, structural, and MEP systems. This approach streamlined communication, minimized conflicts, and enhanced overall project efficiency and accuracy.
RESULTS
Through precise modeling and comprehensive documentation, C2A helped streamline and accelerate the approval process, facilitating timely permit acquisition while maintaining a high level of design accuracy. This rigorous coordination ultimately resulted in a fully integrated, construction-ready project with minimized conflicts and clear, buildable documentation.
