The Centipede unfolds as a series of stacked blocks, shifting in position to create dynamic spaces beneath. This vertical student residence features compact 20–23 sqm apartments, elevated above an open, flowing ground floor. The playful arrangement fosters both shelter and openness, balancing privacy with communal interaction—an adaptable framework where living spaces and shared areas intertwine in constant dialogue.
