Ferrous Park International Architectural Design CompetitionFerrous Park in association with STRETCH and SquareOne Collaborative announces an international architectural design competition for the design of a housing project, fronting a sculpture park, with seven individual dwellings in the Crossroads Arts District in Kansas City, Missouri USA.
The project seeks to offer an approach for integrating new housing construction into urban core redevelopment by preserving and strengthening the early aspects of a neighborhood identity as physical, social and financial development merges into a burgeoning neighborhood.
Construction of the dwellings, scheduled for spring 2007, will emphasize new construction technologies, off-site production of building components and environmentally-fr iendly products and means of production (i.e. sustainable and green construction).
Participant's submittals must be received by January 31st, 2006.
This project involves both the design and construction of a housing project with seven individual dwellings in the Crossroads Arts District in Kansas City, Missouri.
Architects selected from this competition will design four of the seven dwellings.
The design aspect of the project centers on attempting to define and broaden the role of new housing construction as a component of urban core redevelopment beyond merely adding living space
