Multi Family Apartment Project Get’s Approval in Napa Valley

St. Anton Partners scored a nice win in Napa Valley when the City Council unanimously approved their new Multi Family Apartment Project.  The real winner’s here were a select few already on a list of nearly 300 people that qualify for affordable housing in Napa Valley.  This 134 unit project will allocate 27 units for residents who make 50% or less then the area’s median income.

Our client, St. Anton Partners asked for our assistance with creating a series of renderings to assist with communicating the look and feel of the project and to allow all concerned stakeholders to better understand the sensitive steps that have been taken during the design process to ensure this project integrates well into the community.

Sometimes a project that has competing interests from the standpoint of a divided community, can at a minimum benefit from seeing photorealistic renderings that depict an accurate portrayal of what the developer is planning to build.  In this case a number of exterior renderings were created by focus 360 to bring the design to a more human perspective and help bring a clear picture to what is being debated so the right decision is reached for all involved.

Although, not all approved projects garner 100% support from the community, in this case hopefully the small part Focus 360 played in creating these renderings allowed more people to get a clear idea about what this project would look like once it is built.
