Living Together, Living Differently
Exploring housing diversity and shared spaces for healthy living in Houtwijk
The Dutch housing market is under sustained pressure, limiting access to suitable and affordable housing for both long-term residents and people in vulnerable or transitional living situations. In neighbourhoods with a relatively homogeneous housing stock, such as Houtwijk in the Loosduinen district of The Hague, these pressures are intensified. Limited housing diversity restricts residential mobility, blocks generational flow, and inadequately accommodates small households and changing living situations.This graduation project investigates how housing diversity can be architecturally deployed to respond to shared spatial needs across different users, including starters, ageing residents, labour migrants, and people in transitional circumstances. By treating temporary and transitional residence as a recurring condition within the housing system, the project explores how varied dwelling typologies and shared spaces can support healthy living environments.
