Summary
Details

Led by Edward P. Bass Distinguished Visiting Architecture Fellow Marc de La Bruyere and Claire Weisz founding principal of WXY Architecture Students of the Yale School of Architecture sought to investigate and propose history-conscious proposals for housing in Edmonton, Canada, a city poised for future economic growth.

The students assessed how climate, economic forces, and urban contexts impacted the composition of housing typologies over time in various contexts and then focused on ""Gateway Sites"" in Edmonton. The students created proposals that utilized innovative housing schemes and applied socially responsible real estate development to form solutions for local ecological, social, and marketing challenges.
