Due to the great housing shortage, many people continue to live in houses that no longer suit them. Looking at future housing demand by taking adaptability as a starting point to create a suitable home for the future generation. Growing and shrinking houses in order to adapt the house to the people instead of the other way around. To do this, a community is needed to realize this new way of living. Sharing facilities, space and knowledge in order to live in a more efficient but also more sustainable way. Building in a wooden grid that offers guidance, but also possibilities because of the large standardization in elements, each unit can be divided in countless different ways. Adjustments can easily be made within 5 years with a demountable system. Where the technical solutions work together with the power of a community to use the 'left over' space as a communal gallery. To use oversized space in any situation. So the extra investment in the beginning is worth it throughout its lifetime. By making a future-proof building where adaptability is guaranteed by demountable elements and the qualities of wood are used to the maximum.
