Housing affordability around the world has reached a crisis point. Against the backdrop of rapid urbanization and an accelerating environmental emergency, we need solutions for city building that are more socially and economically sustainable, as well as multi-family housing that is more equitable and livable.
5468796's new publication explores the missing middle housing in its many forms and ownership models, from refugee and social housing to market-rate condominiums. Provoked by discussions that took place at a symposium they organized while teaching at the IIT in Chicago 2019, this four-volume publication [MIDDLE, MACRO, MICRO, MODELLING] expands on this hands-on research working with challenging economic and environmental circumstances, using the firm’s built works, concept masterplans and community projects as the foundations to present a ‘toolkit’ of strategies for high- quality attainable, accessible and affordable housing. It will be released with Arquine in October 2023.
The session will consist of presentation by partners Johanna Hurme and Sasa Radulovic, followed by a panel discussion moderated by Trevor Boddy.
