Affordable heaven for the hustlers of tomorrow.

The context

With most of the young population working today to acquire basic security of livelihood and not investing in their lives for the long term (depreciating because of the ‘grind’) due to various social stigmas associated with not owning a home; create this rat-race. Cities being an economic platform that is constantly growing every day - equity of housing has become an issue as they turn more and more severe/unaffordable every day. Affordable housing is one of the measures taken by the government but is not enough considering the vast number of people pooling into the city every day to look for means of livelihood.

Hustle Hub is a housing design competition that explores not subsidized but optimized spaces to not just live but also create, build and move ahead.
