The whitewashed walls and sloping roofs are inspired by the traditional Chinese water town architecture of the surrounding region.Thousands of low-income families are displaced from their urban Shanghai homes each year. Brearley Architects and Urbanists won a competition to develop a low-cost housing community on the outskirts of the city. Learning from the local water-town architecture, this design applies one methodology to create an infinite variety of forms with a minimum of means. The overriding concept for the design is a series of bands running
across the landscape that bend and fold up from the ground to create
the building envelopes. Complex rhythms are formed by repetitive elements such as gable roofs and white masonry walls facing west and east. A riverside promenade, lanes and plazas create a permeable circulation network providing maximum potential for public life. A fresh food market and community center are the anchors of the otherwise speculative shopping program. The design adheres to an 8m structural grid to accommodate underground car parking throughout.The program includes flexible retail space, a fresh produce market, a community clubhouse, restaurants, parkland and underground parking.
