“The Village” is a proposed 25,000 sf, 5 story, 35 unit affordable housing project within the city of Pomona intended to help with transitional housing. The building was designed with the intention that it be viewed as a performative event of shadow casting. That through the day the shadowing affects across the front facade would reveal a residential typography as a shadow mural. Light cascading across rooflines and revealing itself in different aspects mirror the sunlight affects of a traditional village and echo the same ephemeral and welcoming qualities through this dance of shadows.
