The ongoing housing crisis in the United States has become a pressing challenge for the field of architecture, necessitating a proactive response to address this critical need.
This project, in particular, embarks on a journey of exploration, aiming to uncover novel possibilities for residential architecture that not only address the immediate housing shortage but also contribute to the creation of sustainable, vibrant communities. . Recognizing that a thriving community extends beyond the physical structures, the design process delves into understanding the social, economic, and cultural aspects that shape the well-being of its residents.
