Affordable Housing Design with Community Feedback
Our team identified architectural patterns throughout the neighborhood. We asked the community to help us choose the elements which attribute to their distinct urban fabric. The community wanted a project which fits within the neighborhood context, is human scale, and is inviting and connects to its neighbors.
