Collaborative Living Environments

In this course you will explore how different forms of collaborative living environments can contribute to more sustainable and inclusive ways of living. Through analysis, critical discussion, and practical examples, you will gain tools to understand, develop, and reimagine future housing environments.

You will examine how homes and neighbourhoods can be designed to strengthen community, reduce social isolation, and respond to different societal needs. The course also addresses how housing environments can support social and ecological resilience.

The perspective ranges from the home and shared living spaces to the neighbourhood scale.
