Sango Court

Milpitas CA | Completed 

2023

The first multifamily modular building in Milpitas, Sango Court offers 102 affordable, transit-oriented family homes near the Milpitas BART Station.

The design of this affordable community leverages modular construction with an efficient, elegant massing—two simple residential bars set back from the property line—framing a series of open spaces.

Along a new street, the primary facade creates a human scale with stepped volumes varied by color and subtle articulation. A pair of linked courtyards align with a facing planned public park, forming an integrated green core at the heart of the community. The building features open-air circulation throughout—rare in modular design—emphasizing fresh air and access to nature.

Perforated sunshades patterned after the area’s historic farmland add cooling and visual interest. At street level, weathering steel and concrete are paired with a welcoming garden entry, open-air lobby, and community-oriented ground floor, topped by permanent supportive homes.

The transit-oriented, all-electric building prioritizes climate resilience and the health and comfort of residents.
