Affordable Rental Houses
Urban Pastoral Community

Affordable Rental Houses for WE-Me Group of Shenzhen Kaichuang Architectural Design Co., Ltd.

This design takes into consideration the need for affordable rental housing in Shanghai, the impact of epidemics, and China's carbon reduction policies. The designer creates a community vegetable plantation within the settlement and small vegetable gardens on the roofs of buildings of different heights. Together, they form a multi-level growing system that provides safe and easily accessible food for residents. Additionally, each floor of the building has a public space that encourages neighborhood interaction and serves as a service place for emergency medical control during epidemics.

Unique Properties

Production Technology

It uses solar photovoltaic panels, pedal alternator, self-generating electricity floor and self-luminous concrete as building materials to build renewable energy systems .The project's carbon reduction indicators meet the relevant requirements of the General Specification for Building Energy Conservation and Renewable Energy Utilization (GB55015-2021) and the electricity saving rate is 57.11%.

Design Challenge

The main challenge of the project is to create a widely recognized exemplary residential area amidst the abundance of Shanghai's affordable rental housing. The design is based on the national "dual-carbon" strategy, the demand for "Shanghai drifters" (young people who come to Shanghai for work) lifestyle, and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic as the city's background. The goal is to create a three-dimensional neighborhood environment that is shared by surrounding residents and community members while avoiding interference with each other. The construction materials used are ecological and energy-saving to meet the requirements of the national carbon peak and carbon neutrality strategy. The end result is a self-sufficient, community-driven, and low-carbon energy residential area.

Project Duration

The project started in Shanghai in April 2022 and the design was completed in July 2022. Currently, it is in the preparation phase for construction.

Operation Flow

The ground-level rural living area and commercial spaces are open to all citizens, but access is managed through separate entrances to prevent interference between external citizens and internal residents. The most direct perception of this community by people is that it is self-sufficient, ecologically harmonious, and has a strong neighborhood atmosphere, which can prevent the recurrence of vegetable grabbing incidents during the epidemic period in Shanghai.

Research

Research Background: The demand for the construction of affordable rental housing in Shanghai; Method: Extracting and integrating the urban development trends, user needs, and the era background into the design, to create a warm, stylish, and enjoyable urban pastoral community; Tools: Urban planning and architectural design; Participants: Hang Chen, Shanghai Municipal Government; Results and Insights: Becoming a model project for the construction of affordable rental housing in Shanghai.

Inspiration

The project is based on the national strategy of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals in China, the life demands of "Shanghai drifters"(young people who come to Shanghai for work) and the urban background of the Shanghai's epidemic. The design analyzes the multiple problems faced by the project and responds one by one through the design, trying to create an urban pastoral community that is self-sufficient, neighborhood-rich, low carbon and energy regeneration.
