In the fall of 1968, just after the passage of the Fair Housing Act and before astronauts would first orbit the moon, President Johnson launched a housing design competition meant to apply space-age technology to solve the housing crisis. The competition was judged not only by the performance of ten model homes in which a racially integrated community of first-time homebuyers would live but also via a larger participatory design study to identify cultural obstacles to racial integration. East Austin Oaks did not solve the housing crisis, but it did produce a humble cul-de-sac where several original homeowners still live. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
