ENVD students recognized in Milan Affordable Housing Challenge

In spring 2023, four students submitted work to the Milan Affordable Housing Challenge, a design competition part of the Buildner’s architecture competition series. The series is aimed at addressing the global housing crisis and redefining urban living.  

This year’s challenge received 38 international submissions, with only five submitted from the United States. The Program in Environmental Design accounted for two of those submissions. Both submissions received a shortlist recognition in the 2023 competition. Learn more and view each design below.
