Mosaic is a social housing project designed for adults with learning disabilities. “Group Homes,” the official terminology for this type of housing, are recently being redesigned across the United States to make this form of living more suitable. Mosaic is designed foolowing the “Autism and the Built Environment” essay’s guidelines for comfortable designs for people on the spectrum. These include easy wayfinding, retreatable spaces, and limiting noisey surfaces and spaces.

2.4 million households with non-elderly people with disabilities have worst-case housing needs. Nearly 40% of all worst-case housing in the US.

About 11 percent of the U.S. population has some level of chemical sensitivity (CS) that is likely to require housing that is free of disabling environmental triggers.
