Affordability can be affected by a vast variety of criteria including building size, structural construction, materials, and consolidation of MEP. The Core House takes a nuanced approach to the consolidation of MEP systems in order to provide a concise and refined residential form. The core, from which the building receives its name, contains the kitchen, the bathrooms, laundry tooms, and bedrooms in order to stack and consolidate all necessary MEP systems. Development of this project was contingent upon concentration of systems and dispersal of living or public spaces.

The final design portrays a commitment to well-crafted and focused design that employs heavy amounts of rationality and strong design sensibilities. Materiality following the core concept is used to distinguish space as well as being sustainable and cost effective. The core provides unique spatial moments and a more rationalized understanding of affordable housing design that is simple, centered, and focused. This home is defined by its neat, refined, and concentric design that provides a level of comfort and design not often seen in the affordable residences.
