MicroPAD
Innovative Affordable Housing Prototype
Affordable-by-design workforce housing is being developed for the San Francisco housing market; this prototype was created as part of this investigation.
Scalable Manufacturing
The entire project is composed of compact bedroom suite units (components of a group housing dwelling) that are to be manufactured as stackable structural modules made entirely of steel, and sized for shipping container delivery.
Value
Both the manufacturing and construction concept, as well as the compact unit interiors, reduce development costs and rents. The unit interiors feature glazed and mirrored clerestories to provide an expansive sense of space.
