COMMUNITY HOUSING FUTURES: GRIFFITH GARDENS

Griffith Gardens is a permanent supportive co-housing facility and community center located in West Philadelphia. This adaptive reuse project addresses housing insecurity as an ongoing crisis that intersects with the built environment by presenting a unique list of needs that interiors programming and design could better address through trauma-informed design and co-design strategies. Griffith Gardens includes 16 residential units with on-site mental and physical health services, case management, educational fellowship opportunities, a co-op storefront, and flexible community-facing spaces that benefit the local neighborhood of on-site residents, university students, and Philadelphia neighbors.
