Sana Casa
Aiming to create a healthier living environment for improved mental and social well-being, SANA CASA is an intergenerational housing project thoughtfully designed to encourage social interactions and promote indoor-outdoor living.

Sited in a public housing block, it relies on 4 main design strategies to provide comfortable and sustainable homes for multigenerational families.

“Going beyond its function as a shelter, a house should also provide comfort, love, belonging, through a sense of community, which includes relationships with family, friends, and neighbors.”
- Arely Cavazos
Responding to the emerging mental health issues such as stress, depression, loneliness, and social isolation, this project attempts to encourage people to live with their extended families, as family is seen as a pillar of support and love. However, more young people prefer to live seperately from their parents, which leads to higher number of loneliness among elderlies and fewer multigenerational households. Surveys show that reason-being is due to: (1)Lack of sense of privacy, (2)Lack of living space, (3)Growing households, (4)Condition of aging flats. As a response, SANA CASA targets to provide comfortable homes for intergenerational living.
Going on board with the Singapore Government’s plan to build a multigenerational community, SANA CASA is an implementation of various design strategies that can provide healthier homes for intergenerational families. Not only the housing units are adaptable and flexible, the design also focuses on creating an enjoyable environment for enhanced bonding experience at home.

Project Objectives
1. To redesign a public housing block for intergenerational living.

2. To encourage social interactions between residents.
3. Using biophilic design to enhance wellbeing of residents.
Design Strategies
1. Creating adaptable residential unit configuration : combinable units, flexibility of function
2. Incorporating nature & indoor-outdoor living : balconies, openings, greenery, materiality
3. Reducing physical barrier to enhance social interaction
4. Balancing privacy & interaction : layering of private, semi-private, semi-public, public
Site Analysis

Tiong Bahru HDB, Singapore


While a portion of extension will be added to the outer layer of the existing HDB block, the new design does not require a total rebuild. Effectively, some walls will be retained, position of bathroom and kitchen will also be kept. Some walls are taken out to open up the space.


The “Old” & The “New”
New structures are attached to the current existing space. To keep the essence of the original building, the extension is to look ‘light’ and ‘transparent’, which will also act as a transitional space connecting the inside and outside.


Adaptable Unit Configuration Adaptable
Sourced from Housing & Development Board (HDB), the table below shows how a public housing flat is expected to be used over the years.

As an attempt to create a balance between individual privacy and family interaction, the spatial planning of each unit is based on levels of interactions (shown below).

The layering of private, semi-private, and communal spaces can help encourage social interactions between family members without obstructing individual privacy.
