II East York Affordable Housing 2021
The design project aims to address the issue of affordable housing in Toronto by proposing a unique approach. By creating small, easily scattered houses amidst the densely populated areas of the city, the project seeks to make housing more accessible and affordable. These compact yet thoughtfully designed homes offer a practical solution, allowing individuals and families to reside in desirable neighbourhoods without the burden of exorbitant costs. With their strategic placement, these affordable houses contribute to the diversification of housing options and promote a more inclusive and sustainable urban environment in Toronto. These affordable houses can be prefabricated using modular construction methods. This allows for rapid assembly and the potential to create clusters of 2, 4, 8, or 16 units, depending on the specific needs of the neighbourhood and available land.
