HANAC Corona Residence
Answering the needs for the community, HANAC Corona Residence provides a progressive vision of integrating the high sustainable standards of passive house with much needed affordable housing. By using material articulation and material science, the design integrates its 8-story volume into the existing low-rise collage like urban fabric, while providing premium energy savings and comfort for seniors.
