橡树公园住宅是一个紧凑的插建的建筑项目，位于萨克拉门托橡树公园区一个长期空置地段上，这是一个人口多样化的社区，几十年来一直遭受经济停滞和城市投资减少的影响。近年来，年轻的专业人士、艺术家和学生开始重新发现橡树公园是靠近萨克拉门托市中心的一个适宜他们居住的社区，新的艺术画廊，独立咖啡店和小型企业挤满了整个地区废弃的店面。

自1969 年臭名昭著的橡树公园暴乱以来，橡树公园住宅是该社区第一批新的住宅开发项目之一，那次暴乱给城市的社会和自然景观留下了永久的伤痕；因此，该项目不仅仅是对现有住房存量的补充：还是城市复兴的先兆，它的建筑欣然接受了推动这个充满活力和文化多样性的社区不断复兴的创造力和活力。

该项目是由六个小住宅组成的密集集群。这些房屋构造简单，两层的体量，其外观清爽，但刻意的戏谑，以呼应橡树公园渗透的进步和艺术精神，精心设计的比例与该地区现有建筑体量和规模相呼应。其中三个单元沿着第二大道组合在一起，修复支离破碎的街道边缘，修补不规则的街区组构。另外三个住宅从公共巷道进入，延续萨克拉门托独特的住宅小巷类型，是活跃的邻里小径。每栋建筑的预算非常有限，每栋建筑的居住面积为1,503 平方英尺，由两个相互连接的部分组成，一个浅灰色的地面基础和一个较暗的、略微悬臂的上方空间。厨房、客厅和餐厅被整合为一个主要楼层的开放空间，楼梯通往二楼的三个卧室。

简单的外部调色板包括胶结灰泥和纤维板包层，辅以尺寸合适和精心放置的落地孔。在上层，南立面转换成一个铰接式的垂直涂漆金属百叶窗，既充当遮阳屏，又充当组合装置。百叶窗的间距构成了一种深度纹理，动态节奏，其棱镜色调和了住宅的中性、柔和的色调，反射着附近的建筑和壁画生动、千变万化的色彩。

Oak Park Housing is a compact urban infill development on a long-vacant lot in Sacramento’s Oak Park district, a demographically diverse neighborhood that, for decades, had suffered from economic stagnation and urban disinvestment.In recent years, young professionals, artists, and students have started to rediscover Oak Park as an affordable community close to downtown Sacramento, with new art galleries, independent coffee shops, and small businesses in tow filling abandoned storefronts throughout the area.

Oak Park Housing is one of the neighborhood’s first new residential developments since the infamous 1969 Oak Park Riots, which left lasting scars on the city’s social and physical landscape; accordingly,the project is more than just a contemporary addition to the existing housing stock: it is a harbinger of urban revitalization, its architecture cheerfully embracing the creative and buoyant energy that has propelled the ongoing renaissance of this vibrant and culturally diverse community.

The project is a dense cluster of six small homes.Carefully proportioned to echo the massing and scale of the area’s existing building stock, the houses are simple, two-story volumes, their appearance crisp but deliberately playful in a nod to the progressive and artsy spirit permeating Oak Park. Three of the units are grouped along 2nd Avenue, where they repair the fragmented street edge and mend the ragged fabric of the block. The other three homes are accessed from the public alley, continuing Sacramento’s unique typology of residential alleys that serve as active neighborhood pathways.

Designed around an ambitiously limited construction budget, each building has a living area of 1,503 square feet and consists of two interlocking components, a light-grey ground-level base and a darker,slightly cantilevered volume above. Kitchen, living and dining are consolidated as one open space on the main level, with stairs leading up to three bedrooms on the second floor.

The simple exterior palette includes cementitious stucco and fiberboard cladding, complemented by the prudently sized and carefully placed floor-to-ceiling apertures. On the upper level, the south façade transforms into an articulated field of lacquered vertical metal louvers that act as both sun screen and compositional device. The metered spacing of the louvers sets up a deeply textured, dynamic cadence, their prismatic colors complementing the homes’ otherwise neutral, muted tones and cheerfully reverberating the vivid, kaleidoscopic hues of the buildings and murals nearby.
