Re-Focusing the conversation on the current wave of interest in Micro-Housing
Questioning who cities are being designed for/adapted to (e.g. "professional" singles without children, versus multigenerational households or families) in the current conversation about densification in cities. Who does it benefit? How do we build a diverse, flexible range of housing types that meet the needs of all kinds of people? "⌠in a wealthy society thereâs no need for people to make do with so little (ecological issues aside, that is). All the square footage is going to mansions for the 1%. That, plus the concentration of demand in fewer urban areas, which I think also tracks the growth of wealth inequality â everyone who wants to live off the crumbs of the super-rich needs to be in the same place. And thereâs been a decades-long failure to build new urban places that would spread out that demand for real urban experiences â why did that happen?"

SsDÂ presents an innovative approach to micro-housing. In their recently completed Seoul building, flexible spaces accommodate peopleâs changing needs over time. Living units can be combined for growing families and separated when relationships comes to an end. Will we see more of this kind of housing in the future?Â
