OBH
Octavia Boulevard Housing Competition
with Lara Kaufman
Competition
Hayes Valley, San Francisco 2005
When Octavia Boulevard replaced San Francisco's earthquake damaged Central Freeway, numerous surplus properties became available for housing. Our proposal addressed a prominent "gateway" site at the corner of Market and Octavia. Four principles guided our proposal for this site:
Responsible Density - With excellent transportation and nearby employment opportunities, Hayes Valley is an ideal place for a new form of high density housing that is responsible to its occupants, its neighbors, and the environment.
Expressive Green Architecture - Solar Panels crown the roof, operable windows and sunshades allow the residents to tune their living environment, and a living green roof provides insulation and beauty.
