Growing Community: Merging Markets, Produce and Housing

Urban Growing Community that hosts an Indoor and Outdoor market and large growing space in the ground Floor of this Mixed-use building. The residences are all strategically placed in the upper levels where individual flats along with shared communal flats are available. Each apartment is equipped with an outdoor balcony with a growing area.

THIS PROJECT IS A PROPOSAL FOR AN URBAN GROWING COMMUNITY IN THE FAUBOURG LAFAYETTE DISTRICT OF NEW ORLEANS. THE MIXED-USE RESIDENTIAL COMPLEX HAS AN INDOOR AND OUTDOOR MARKET THAT SELLS THE PRODUCE BEING SOLD IN THE SETBACK AREA OF THE SITE. RESIDENTS INHABITING THE ABOVE RESIDENTIAL FLOORS ARE ALL EQUIPPED WITH AN OUTDOOR AREA WHICH PROVIDES GROWING SPACE. TO FURTHER REINFORCE THE CONCEPT OF AN URBAN GROWING COMMUNITY, THE RESIDENCES ARE ORGANIZED AS SHARED HOUSING OR OPTIMIZED SINGLE HOUSING.
