Wettbewerbsaufgabe
San Francisco ist eine der angesagtesten und beliebtesten Städte in den Vereinigten Staaten, was sie auch zu einer der teuersten Städte der Welt macht. San Francisco, die Heimat des Silicon Valley, hat sich zur Anlaufstelle für Technologieunternehmen in den USA entwickelt, und angesichts der zahllosen Tech-Angestellten, die mit beträchtlichen Gehaltsschecks in die Gegend strömen, ist es nicht schwer zu verstehen, warum die Preise in der Bay Area in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten in die Höhe geschossen sind.
Hinzu kommen die strengen Zonierungsgesetze innerhalb der Stadtgrenzen und in der größeren Bay Area. San Francisco hat eine immer größer werdende Kluft zwischen Angebot und Nachfrage nach Wohnraum erlebt. Zumper, eine Plattform, die die nationalen Mieten verfolgt, verzeichnete kürzlich die höchste jemals erzielte Durchschnittsmiete für eine Einzimmerwohnung. Mit 3.700 Dollar pro Monat ist San Francisco nun offiziell die teuerste Stadt des Landes.
Der Wettbewerb San Francisco Affordable Housing Challenge ist der aktuelle in der Wettbewerbsreihe Bee Breeders Affordable Housing. In Zusammenarbeit mit ARCHHIVE BOOKS werden die Teilnehmer bei diesem Wettbewerb für erschwingliches Wohnen damit beauftragt, eine Lösung für die Wohnungskrise in der Stadt zu finden.
Für diesen Wettbewerb gibt es keine spezifischen Anforderungen, daher werden die Teilnehmer aufgefordert, mit ihren Lösungsvorschlägen so kreativ wie möglich zu sein. Die Projektentwürfe sollten flexibel sein, so dass sie den verschiedenen Bewohnern und ihren unterschiedlichen Bedürfnissen gerecht werden können, z.B. Familien, alleinstehende Berufstätige, Paare usw.
Competition assignment
San Francisco is one of the trendiest and most-popular cities in the United States, which also happens to make it one of the most expensive cities in the world. Home of Silicon Valley, San Francisco has become the go-to city for tech companies within the US, and with countless tech employees flocking to the area with sizeable paychecks, it’s not hard to see why the prices in the Bay Area have skyrocketed in the previous decades.
Add to this the strict zoning laws within the city limits and the greater Bay Area, San Francisco has seen an ever-increasing gap between the supply and demand for housing. Zumper, a platform that tracks national rents, recently recorded the highest ever median rent for a one-bedroom apartment. At $3,700 per month, San Francisco is now officially the most expensive city in the country.
The San Francisco Affordable Housing Challenge is the latest in the Bee Breeders Affordable Housing competition series. In partnership with ARCHHIVE BOOKS, this affordable housing challenge is tasking participants with conceiving a solution to the city by the bay’s housing crisis.
There are no specific requirements for this competition, and so participants are encouraged to be as creative as possible with their proposed solutions. Project designs should be flexible, enabling them to accommodate different inhabitants and their varying requirements. e.g. families, single professionals, couples, etc.
