Social housing encompasses the design and development of affordable residential spaces that serve diverse populations, from students and young professionals to refugees and underhoused communities. These projects balance practical constraints with thoughtful spatial planning to create dignified living environments.

The community explores innovative approaches to social housing through adaptive reuse, high-density courtyard schemes, transitional facilities for vulnerable groups, and mixed-use developments that integrate housing with shared amenities and public space.
