Introducing Flex Flat, our late entry into the Chicago Architecture Center’s Missing Middle competition. No matter the location of a standard-sized lot, Flex Flat is designed to fit into any neighborhood. Flex Flat features options from 2-4 stories and 4-8 units, from studios to 4-bedroom duplexes.
