Los Angeles faces a persistent housing crisis, exacerbated by high costs and limited inventory. In response, the 'Small Lots, Big Impacts' initiative invites architects to rethink affordable housing on city-owned small lots. With multiple entries focusing on 'Gentle Density' and 'Shared Future', the initiative promotes livable, family-friendly home designs that challenge traditional views of space as a barrier. Noteworthy designs include the Shared Steps and 4X4X4 concepts, showcasing innovative solutions that maximize functionality and community integration while addressing the urgent need for affordable housing in Los Angeles.
The ‘Small Lots, Big Impacts’ initiative reimagines and optimizes small city-owned lots for affordable housing, representing a significant advancement in Los Angeles' housing landscape.
By challenging norms with creative designs, the initiative aims to turn spatial limitations into innovative solutions for starter homes, fostering livability in tight urban settings.
