About the event
The Urbanarium has issued an invitation to designers around the world to develop and present innovative solutions that enhance community vitality.
REGISTER AT: http://www.themixingmiddle.ca
REGISTRATION DEADLINE is Tuesday, November 2nd, 2021 at midnight.
Existing monocultural single-family neighbourhoods need to densify with Missing Middle housing, but that on its own isn’t enough. Those neighbourhoods also need a variety of activities to thrive. This competition asks designers to add new mixed-use functionality to skillfully enhance densifying areas, building on lessons learned during the pandemic.
The intent is to allow experimentation with different land uses, public realm configurations and to integrate commercial, recreational, social enterprises and the sharing economy that are compatible with housing into the proposed project sites. Competitors are encouraged to ask questions that challenge current zoning and traditional street/lot layouts.
