Module X
Module X reconfigures the typology of traditional dwelling units by inviting residents to design their homes' layout by mixing and combining modules to accommodate work, family needs and financial situations. Residents become pro-active makers of their own neighbourhood through collaborating together to develop and build resources. This complex brings adaptability for the working young, singles and elderly to size up or down within the co-op. By reclaiming the underutilized front and backyards, the single family lot is able to accommodate a commercial retail unit and a workshop to make the block more vibrant while generating revenue. The semi-private courtyard can be merged with the adjacent neighbour to provide a backdrop for chance encounters or planned activities. This user-centric approach promotes flexibility, social interaction and walkability with increased density to foster social exchanges between neighbours and build a resilient community that grow together.
(From competitor's text)
The Jury liked the approach to flexible and modular living designs that could accommodate different uses, family sizes and times. The scheme was well thought out, and offered a simple and appealing user-centered approach to design. It was clearly presented and easy to out oneself in the scheme. At the same time that it was attractive as a place to live, it also had a high potential for use and a practicality to it too.
