The students then constructed the home over the summer, with an official
dedication taking place in early October. The construction budget was
$130,000 (86,300).

The two-storey house is clad in red cedar and is topped with a pitched roof
made of galvanised aluminium.
"The pitched roof was a contextually sensitive response to the traditional
New England gable roof," said the school.

The upper portion of the home slightly cantilevers over the ground level,
giving the building a distinctive appearance in a neighbourhood dotted
with more traditional architecture. A low concrete wall borders the
property.
The home's design is centred on the idea of a multi-functional core. "The
core is efficient, consolidating stairs and utilities to leave the remainder of
space open, gracious, and able to connect to the site," said the school.

The core is essentially a wooden box inserted into the centre of the home. It
shields the kitchen and living room on the first floor from a highly exposed
street corner.

Stairs within the core lead to the upper storey, which contains a communal
space with built-in cabinetry, along with bedrooms and bathrooms.
"The density of the ground floor is flung to the perimeter of the house on
the upper floor, creating a thickness to hold furniture and fixtures for
bedrooms and bath," described the school.
The team fitted the interior with concrete and bamboo flooring, white oak
millwork and modern appliances. Several large windows, along with a
skylight at the top of the core, enable natural light to fill the space.

The project was honoured with the 2015 Award of Merit for Student Design
from the Connecticut Green Building Council.
The Jim Vlock Building Project was started by Charles W Moore, the
architecture school's dean from 1965 to 1971, in collaboration with faculty
member Kent Bloomer.
"Moore saw that getting out of the studio and building something would
have several benefits for the students," said the school. "As a believer in
simple tectonics and basic technologies, he hoped students would be
inspired by the mechanics of building."

"In the midst of the student unrest of the 1960s he saw the project as a way
for students to commit to positive social action by building for the poor."
Early projects were located outside of New Haven, ranging from
community centres in the Appalachian region to camp structures in rural
Connecticut.

In more recent years, the programme has teamed up with groups such as
Habitat for Humanity and Common Ground to focus on affordable housing.
Other recent design-build projects include a pair of micro-cabins on the
Navajo Reservation in Utah by students from the University of Colorado.
