Evergreen Community Housing
This project assigned students to design a housing complex for the small town of Bancroft, Ontario. The brief required students to study housing types, row houses & court houses, and apply modifications to suit the conditions of the site.
This design intends to enhance the transition from the public realm of Hastings street, to the private residential area through the use of landscaping and building orientation. The community space, located on the north east corner allowing the opportunity to open directly to the park, serves as flexible rental space and can host a local farmers market in the warmer seasons. This orientation allows pathways to the public park proposal, and provides a private green space for the residents of the complex.
