Housing prototypes and solutions for revitalizing communities
This project is creating urban housing options by building a life-size prototype of housing developed by the Net Positive Studio.
The project is identifying opportunities to connect existing workforce development initiatives in technical education with rapidly deployable manufactured housing, which could be built in local “microfactories” that could contribute to local economic development.
