Our idea for this project is to connect the flat and gable triple-deckers using a cross gable fragment that spans across from one triple-decker to the other. Utilizing conical and cylindrical geometry to stitch the connection in between both triple-deckers. The fragment gable would turn into a cone and connect to a flat cylindrical roof, creating a small outdoor space at the top of the project..

At the conditions where the two gables meet -- the conical connection becomes the buffer in between the two roofs, stitching together these two types.
