Avant Garde Residences 2 by Skyline at JVC

Master Plan

The Avant Garde Residences 2 building at JVC reflects Skyline Builders’ second-phase architectural ambition for a development whose Avant Garde name demands a building identity within the JVC streetscape that genuinely stands apart from the visual homogeneity of the standard mid-market residential tower rather than simply adding another competent building to the community’s established stock.

The building’s design carries the Avant Garde identity into the JVC public realm with the deliberateness and the quality commitment that a developer whose brand is built on the forward-design concept applies to the exterior as consistently as to the interior, creating a building whose facade, whose materiality, and whose relationship with the street and the JVC community landscape communicate the development’s quality and its design ambition to every observer whose daily route takes them past the building.

The ground-level retail activation whose 4,500 square foot commercial unit creates the street-level commercial and community vitality of the development’s most publicly experienced environment is planned as an integral and deliberately designed dimension of the building’s public face rather than as a functional ground-floor commercial space whose design is determined by what is left after the residential floors are fully planned. The quality and the character of the Avant Garde Residences 2 ground level, whose retail anchor and whose landscaped community outdoor environment create the daily public realm quality that makes the building a destination rather than simply a residential address, reflect Skyline Builders’ understanding that the daily experience of the building for its residents begins at street level rather than at the apartment door.
