Pendulum was hired by UCB Properties to design the Scholar’s Row micro unit apartments on historic Troost Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri. Modeled after Singapore’s acclaimed ultra-efficient hotels, Scholar’s Row provides the affordability of a studio apartment with the perks of a traditional one-bedroom loft. Pendulum’s design team made it a priority to maintain all the amenities of a state-of-the-art studio apartment were included in these smaller, loft-style spaces. The kitchens are fully-equipped with modern appliances, glass cooktops and dishwashers. We worked with the developer to arrange the spaces in such a way that the queen size bedroom furniture fits nicely atop the mezzanine loft, and the closet space is quite large for a studio apartment.
