Case Study

Fruition Village

Design Visualization Team:

Project Lead Design-Erik Karstan Smith, ArkSmith Design

Fruition Village is a design visualization concept for an affordable housing village. This conceptual design consists of 80 2-bedroom apartments. I arranged the 10 apartment buildings to create a central park-like setting. The central park contains a swimming pool with spa, a community garden with water reclamation, an accessible playground and park bench seating with BBQ’s.

This Concept includes a large 10,000 sqft community center that could house a childcare center, small grocery store, laundry center, storage units and a fitness club.

The intent of this design visualization is to create a village setting that will be as self-sufficient as possible while also being affordable. This could be a great housing project for students, elderly, small families and working adults.

My client calls it Fruition Village.
