Working through a process involving practitioners, community members, and home manufacturers, three teams of graduate students each designed an affordable, sustainable, and accessible prototype home for an innercity neighborhood where affordable housing is scarce. Students presented the designs to local policymakers to work with them on pragmatic issues, and produced a set of working drawings for the modular home manufacturers to begin fabrication.
The program was created to offer citizens in communities across America an opportunity to celebrate their community heritage, address emerging architectural challenges and trends, and find their voices to help make their vision real for beautiful, safe, and livable communities.
According to the jury, the program’s “strong points are the work with modular manufacturers and firms, its willingness to take on a variety of issues including sustainability, integration into the neighborhoods and material selection, and the emphasis on the process of building, particularly over a critical time frame.
