Following our previous semester's work of developing a sustainable and affordable housing alternative, our team is taking the next step in developing both a system and component design of our housing solution. In our final design, six apartment style buildings each housing 18 families are to be constructed utilizing unique design solutions to meet the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design or LEED criteria. We have considered many important factors such as ADA accessibility, communal spaces including grassy areas, retention ponds, and ensured proper land development and drainage. Overall, our final design meets the sustainable and efficiency standards set by both LEED and our team's motivation to provide a great housing solution for central Texas residents.
