The aim of the studio was to develop a housing strategy for the city to expand choices of affordable housing to all income groups. Through a multi-pronged approach it aimed to demonstrate how the city can be enabled to efficiently address the issue of housing unaffordability in its specific land and labour market. The studio focused on framing policies and regulations that enabled local markets to generate adequate, affordable, and decent housing stock. Also, it aimed at framing policies, programs, and regulations that can provide assistance to households, living in substandard informal and formal housing but not catered by markets, to access decent affordable housing.
