Density & Diversity DMN Sustainability September event
The ‘Missing Middle’ is used to describe a form of dwelling type between the house on a single lot and the high rise apartment WA members joined together to acknowledge Sustainability September at the Claisebrook Community Centre, to learn from member John Damant (Arcologic) about the concept of ‘The Missing Middle’. With policy reform agenda looming in the background, the event addressed future sustainable housing strategies. The Missing Middle is used to describe a form of dwelling type between the house on a single lot and a high-rise apartment - this includes terrace housing, dual occupancy, and multi dwelling houses. They offer greater diversity for different demographics, promoting walkable neighbourhoods, greenery and tree canopies, with a feeling of community and consideration to the long-term sustainable use of building materials.
