Designing Affordable Housing out of Shipping Containers for Ciudad Juarez, Mexico and Chicago, Illinois (Semester Unknown) IPRO 339: Designing Affordable Housing out of Shipping Containers for Ciudad Juarez, Mexico IPRO 339 MidTerm Presentation Su08

Abstract

Currently 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.Deliverable
