Jury Comments
Another inspiring rediscovery of neglected possibilities, these prefabricated housing units stacked on the flat roof of an existing building are at once playful and socially powerful. The transformation of the building is not apparent at street level but profound at the new roof-level grade. The result is an original vision of green, low-impact intensification.
