Show moreIPRO 339 is focused on providing an affordable housing option for the working poor in Juarez, Mexico. This semester we will research the technologies involved in reusing shipping containers for this housing. We will design a prototype housing unit which will relate to other units in an overall community, with services such as commerce, open spaces for activity, and community centers to support them. We wish to design a housing community that embodies the ideals of humanity, affordability, functionality, opportunity, sustainability, durability, safety, culture, and neighborhood. In order to do this, our team for the Spring Semester has set forth the following objectives: • Research and understand the users of our product by looking at the social, economic, and physical factors in Juarez, Mexico and in the Maquiladoras where they work. • Research the most cost efficient and sustainable ways of incorporating plumbing, HVAC, and electricity into the homes. • Research the structural aspects of building this community. • Develop a potential site plan and floor plans and sections for the housing units. • Using our research and designs, develop a proposal for our sponsor, considering the client at hand.

Show moreCurrently there are several countries throughout the world that have a large need for affordable housing. Our IPRO is currently dealing with solutions for Juarez, Mexico and Chicago, Illinois. These two places are very different in climate, culture, as well as economy. Our IPRO this semester will focus on applying the prototype from last semester to these two regions, while making adjustments as needed. We will continue the research into systems which will be advantageous to each situation and develop them accordingly. Once we get a better understanding as to how we can apply our prototype to these situations we will be better able to apply the prototype to various other countries throughout the world.

Show moreIPRO 339 is focused on providing an affordable housing option for the working poor in Juarez, Mexico. This semester we will research the technologies involved in reusing shipping containers for this housing. We will design a prototype housing unit which will relate to other units in an overall community, with services such as commerce, open spaces for activity, and community centers to support them. We wish to design a housing community that embodies the ideals of humanity, affordability, functionality, opportunity, sustainability, durability, safety, culture, and neighborhood. In order to do this, our team for the Spring Semester has set forth the following objectives: • Research and understand the users of our product by looking at the social, economic, and physical factors in Juarez, Mexico and in the Maquiladoras where they work. • Research the most cost efficient and sustainable ways of incorporating plumbing, HVAC, and electricity into the homes. • Research the structural aspects of building this community. • Develop a potential site plan and floor plans and sections for the housing units. • Using our research and designs, develop a proposal for our sponsor, considering the client at hand.

We will design a prototype housing unit which will relate to other units in an overall community, with services such as commerce, open spaces for activity, and community centers to support them. We wish to design a housing community that embodies the ideals of humanity, affordability, functionality, opportunity, sustainability, durability, safety, culture, and neighborhood. In order to do this, our team for the Spring Semester has set forth the following objectives: • Research and understand the users of our product by looking at the social, economic, and physical factors in Juarez, Mexico and in the Maquiladoras where they work. • Research the most cost efficient and sustainable ways of incorporating plumbing, HVAC, and electricity into the homes. • Research the structural aspects of building this community. • Develop a potential site plan and floor plans and sections for the housing units. • Using our research and designs, develop a proposal for our sponsor, considering the client at hand.
