Abstract:
Farmworker Housing: Theory and design of housing for migrant farm workers in rural Oregon. Creating a new collaborative community so close
to the core of Woodburn, it is important for the
residents of Nuevo Amanacer IV to have an identity
of their own, while acnowledging the surrounding
community. The units are sized to be similar in
street dimension to the other homes along second
street. The hight and density is kept lower near
the street and rises up along the east and northern
edges of the site. The open courtyard encourages
the neighbors to use the site and interact with its
residents.
