Located in a quaint neighborhood in the heart of Arlington, Virginia’s vibrant Clarendon community, Modera Clarendon is the latest addition to this original urban village. Surrounded by a mix of upscale businesses including mom-and-pop shops, buzzy coffee houses, and hip restaurants, Hartman Design Group was thrilled to be selected by Mill Creek Residential to provide interior design services for this seven-story, 270-unit pet-friendly multifamily building.
Conceived to have a visual connection from the fun and lively streetscape to the apartment’s private courtyard, biophilic patterns are purposely placed throughout the interior to enhance the connection to nature. The building is amenity-rich, with a focus on health, pets, social and physical activity. The fitness center, bike room, bike maintenance shop, coworking, and a fully appointed pet spa take pride of place at the front of the building where those passing by can enjoy the activity within. The clubroom, game room, and work pods connect to the courtyard with floor-to-ceiling windows allowing vistas of the outdoors from every point.
Woven into the open indoor and outdoor amenities are multiple areas to remote work, play, socialize, or find a cozy place to relax alone while enjoying community activity. With clustered social spaces for grilling, sunbathing, work and play, the courtyard is an intimate urban garden that can be viewed from the amenities and resident apartment homes.
Filled with a bespoke collection of whimsical lighting, murals, furnishings, and custom art pieces, Modera Clarendon settles naturally into this artsy, urban community. Expect the unexpected.
