1. would be a multifamily property
2. should be adaptable as the community grows and changes
3. could be a live/work community, so the demographics may include families as well as individuals
4. important program considerations: living areas, kitchen areas, multiple sleeping areas convenient to private restrooms, gathering spaces, interaction with the site
5. sizes of units should be adaptable
6. units should be able to be connected or separate
Initial prototype consists of several prefabricated units some which contain sleeping and bathroom areas and some which contain living and kitchen areas.
All would be of similar width so as to "slot" into an expandable framework, although the length could vary based on number of proposed occupants. Both the framework and the units would be steel frame.
