Building Community

This year's challenge for the Architectural Foundation of San Francisco's Annual High School Design Competition was to design an equitable transit-oriented development that would serve the Portrero Hill, Mission Bay and Dogpatch neighborhoods. Lauren Cheng's Pebble Center won 2nd place in the individual competition, earning Lauren $150 and a scholarship for the California College for the Arts Pre-College Summer Program. Topography Center by Angelyn Liu, Bryanna Fisher and Taylor Wong won 3rd place Group Design and $100, and The Tri Center by Joanna Wong, Alvina Chow and Ryan Kiniris won an Honorable Mention.

We took a trip to the Salesforce Transit Center to get inspiration.
