CULTIVATE
CONTEXT MAP
The approach that I am making towards this project revolves around CULTIVATING the existing community by adding infill developments that fit well with the surrounding context. The key elements that I have utilized that help with cultivating are affordability, a sense of community and a good quality of life. All to often affordable housing projects miss the target on providing a sense of community while being affordable. NEXUS will provide this by having community gardens, communal gathering spaces, private backyards and patio spaces. A sense of pride and responsibility will exist at Nexus. The housing units are constructed with a modular system of 8’x16’ and 16’x16’ blocks that could be arranged as a studio/1 story, 1 bedroom/1 story , and 2 bedroom/2 story. The design is very simple, yet contemporary and pays respects to the southwest style.
