Architecture Goes to School

Housing Concepts...
How do we use our space wisely?
How do we reduce our "footprint" amount of land space used for housing?
Community Issues... How can we create buildings... tall buildings to create community? How can a parent who lives in an apartment building interact with his/her children outside? How can you create a "tower-like" apartment/condos... that has a green space in a tower?
How can you incorporate the "green space" or community area into an apartment building? How can you make an apartment or a "MULTI-FAMILY" housing that will accomodate many different family needs? Get away from the "BOX" idea... with just floors... How will you promote community? Neighbours helping neighbours... The whole community looking out for each other.

What you build forms social patterns (ways we interact) in our neighbourhood?

How do you make streets and fronts of buildings safe?

"Attracktions" need to also look at issues related to safety and community...

INTERCONNECTIVITY...
