Honorable Mention
Members of the AIA North Carolina Activate14 committee Competition: share your ideas on a new typology for urban housing: an eight-unit Live/Work micro-dwelling project. The site is a remnant city space that lies between a parking deck and a sidewalk in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA.
Affordable live/work housing
Modularity and prefabrication
Environments that include natural ecology and sustainable lifestyles
Leftover city land as a resource for mending urban fabric
This is an ideas competition generated by the presence of many left over spaces in our cities: unused setbacks, awkward lots and plots thought too small for normal projects. Together these remnant spaces account for a significant percentage of our urban landscape. Live/work micro-dwellings concentrate activity in cities, reduce traffic, and lead to more vital urban places. The goal of this ideas competition is to generate innovative micro- housing: live/work dwellings on leftover pieces of land that can repair and enliven our cities.
