Abstract:
Farmworker Housing: Theory and design of housing for migrant farm workers in rural Oregon. For this project, we addressed three aspects of the farmworker community, identity, community, and
affordability. Focusing on these, our goals were to:
-Create thresholds and transitions between levels of community
-Create gathering space for the internal community, as well as the external
community, to come together
-Create a prototype that is self empowering and self sustaining, not only for the
farmworkers but also the farm owners
