Abstract

My graduation project is about renovation and splitting the low quality walk-up flats into multiple and ’responsive’ housing that allows one person households to live in smaller spaces that have a higher functionality, so we can respond to the population growth into the cities. A number of amenities in a home can be shared in the current forms of living. As a result, there is a smaller space requirement, which in turn benefits the affordability of the home. This graduation project is also about a sharing economy that can have an impact on our society in such a way that it can provide an answer to social developments and the effects in the field of housing.
