d i s c o v e r research and design project to produce a healthy living building: affordable housing and community programming. located in the humboldt park neighborhood and lightly influenced by the invest southwest program attempts, my design is centered around bringing a stem learning center to the area and offering affordable family housing that embraces the familial and communal aspects of latin culture in the area.

The ambition that this coach home design aims to achieve is an enhanced sense of social interaction for an expanding younger generation. It is hard for college students to find feasible housing options in the city. By adapting this ADU into a 1 bed-1.5 bath apartment, moments of social interactions and entertainment possibilities are shaped by open spaces and a seamless flow of connection through interior and exterior spaces.

The design creates a functional and enticing housing option for college students or graduates trying to get on their feet.
