A nine-level, open-air walkway at 2060 Folsom takes advantage of the Mission’s mild climate to reduce conditioned space and features panoramic views over the neighborhood. The playful scrim casts biophilic shadows throughout the day, connecting residents with nature’s rhythms. Designed in collaboration with Y.A. Studio, and developed by Mission Economic Development Association (MEDA) and Chinatown Community Development Center (CCDC). 📷: @brucedamonte

Casa Adelante 2060 Folsom is located in what was once the rich ecological zone of Mission Creek and its associated wetlands. In the lobby, environmental graphics celebrate this community history along residents’ daily routes through the building. Just beyond is a generous south-facing courtyard that reconnects with this hidden ecology to filter stormwater, provide biohabitat and play space, and act as a 'town square’ for residents overlooking the adjacent In Chan Kaajal Park. Designed in collaboration with Y.A. Studio, and developed by Mission Economic Development Association (MEDA) and Chinatown Community Development Center (CCDC). 📷: @brucedamonte

Casa Adelante 2060 Folsom makes the most of its urban, park-adjacent site to provide infrastructure for social equity and a low-carbon future. A mixed-use building with 127 permanently affordable homes and a rich offering of resident and community-serving spaces on the ground floor, the project is the first large new-construction all-electric multi-family housing in San Francisco and boasts a predicted gross EUI of 14.6!

The project is the first phase of the Hamilton & Walton Transformation that will, in all, deliver 1,800 student beds and diverse academic, student life and open space improvements on campus. Stay tuned for more images of Unthank Hall and following phases, now under construction! Designed in association with Rowell Brokaw. 📷: @k7scott

The Equity at Work Mithun R+D effort examines racial equity within built environment design practice. As this second half of the spectrum diagram shows, intangible factors involve trust, belongingness and care. Improving intangible factors is difficult, gradual and requires authentically supportive action. When compared to the employee retention data, intangible cultural factors displayed stronger relationships to predicted retention than tangible cultural factors.

The Equity at Work Mithun R+D effort examines racial equity within built environment design practice. Derived from primary findings, which simultaneously illustrate alignment and discrepancy between respondent subgroups’ workplace perceptions, this spectrum of tangibility arranges cultural factors by their qualitative nature. This helps workplaces know which cultural factors are more easily impacted and which require more time, resources and care. Tangible cultural factors (shown in this image) are the 'low-hanging fruit' of workplace culture improvement. Generally, positive changes to tangible cultural factors are more easily implemented. See the next image for information about intangible factors.
