/ Reframing Residencies

Reframing Residencies is a design scheme aimed at transforming perceptions and experiences of social housing. It introduces a mechanism to generate highly diverse spaces in both form and function. Using an algorithm, the placement of units is optimized based on key parameters such as optimal views and southern orientation. A network of permeable walls organizes the units into six unique residential clusters, creating a variety of outdoor and semi-outdoor spaces. This design promotes outdoor living and fosters a reimagined connection between residents, nature, and collective activities.
