Abito is an innovative apartment concept that delivers compact units with high quality, affordable design. Each 350 sq ft apartment features a central services pod with a bathroom, kitchen and storage area, bookended by a ‘sleeping end’ and a ‘living end’ - where a glazed wall opens to a balcony that floods the interior with daylight. Units were designed using a prefabricated construction solution, which was first realized for the Greengate development and later replicated for future Abito apartments.
