How do you define a prototype for multi-family housing that doesn't look like either of these:
Large block of apartments - example
Suburban sprawl - example
But instead interacts with the site, creates a sense of unique place for its residents, allows for urban density while still providing comfortable (?) amount of space.
Should it be multi-story? Single story? Should access corridors and community spaces be indoor (prefab?) or outdoor?
Prefab lends itself to components - how does being one entity (unit/program) vs multiple entities with shared walls get into prefab process? Should units share walls and how should they?
What about it makes it in DETROIT? Why is this design process used in Detroit in particular?
