International Competition for New Housing in New OrleansArchitectural Record, in partnership with the Tulane School of Architecture, announces two International Competitions to generate housing proposals for New Orleans in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
The dual competitions are: (1) New Orleans House Prototype, open to current architecture students; and (2) High-Density on the High-Ground, open to everyone.
Participants in these competitions will design much-needed housing for the city of New Orleans.
The first competition will generate proposals for a house prototype, variations of which can be replicated throughout the city.
In this competition, the house prototype will be demonstrated as an affordable single-family home on a typical New Orleans lot.
The second competition will generate a 140-unit housing community with mixed-use components on a high-ground site by the Mississippi River.
Winning designs will be published in Architectural Record and presented at the 2006 AIA Convention and Expo.
Selected submissions will appear on McGraw-Hill Construction web sites.
