We ask: what can be done with our classically determined “waste” materials?
This CLT housing proposal densifies the properties of Ann Arbor neighborhoods and promotes a D.I.Y. approach to home construction, maintenance and income stream.
By partnering with SCRAP Creative Reuse, a local non-profit and other recycling centers around Ann Arbor, this domicile opens possibilities for collective ownership and individual customization of one's living space. From repurposed domestic materials that never really 'die', an evolving multi-family home and makerspace is created. The opportunity to live and work contributes to a new status-quo of secondary life through Scrap CLT's construction.
Materials are not meant to be disposed after one use. Spaces are not meant to serve only one function. Not just a house, but a public amenity.
This is the motto of Scrap CLT. *
