Esquina grants every unit access to natural light, even those with primarily northern orientation or many shared walls. Light wells strategically placed over living, kitchen, and bathroom spaces allow the refraction and dilution of warm morning, and afternoon light into these spaces with opaque finishing bringing midday direct light into the unit in a less harsh, filtered way. This method of capturing light into the unit mitigates the amount of heat gain typically seen through traditional glazing glazing design, allowing for a brighter home environment without sacrificing comfortability. These same light wells also function as outdoor sky-framing spaces on the patios leading to some of the units, granting more privacy and utility to these front yard terrace spaces.
