The 2023 International Student Tall Building Design Competition ran on the theme of "Humanizing High Density - People, Nature & the Urban Realm", the theme of the CTBUH 2023 International Conference, to explore how high-density urbanization can support healthy living, working, and civic and social engagement and discuss solutions for livable shapes of density; equity in housing; creating better social spaces; finding balance with nature; reducing carbon emissions; mitigating the effects of climate change; and striking a balance in development that is appropriate for local environmental and cultural conditions.

RevitaliZen
Khurtsbileg Erdenetsogt, Rachel Truong, and Amir Zarei, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign
The project presents a comprehensive approach to addressing the housing crisis in New York City, focusing on affordability, and enhancing living qualities. By designing a modular system with a level of flexibility, our goal is to propose a design capable of accommodating sudden economic changes and population fluctuations. This adaptability ensures that the housing landscape remains connected to the dynamic realities of New York City. The design proposal centers around providing affordable and compact living spaces that cater specifically to single-occupancy and double-occupancy units, thereby tackling the scarcity of suitable accommodations.
