dc.description.abstract | Housing serves the fundamental human need for shelter. As family structures fluctuate, the living space changes. Instead of the need for multiple dwellings, having a living space that accommodates each life stage in the form of multi-generational housing is an effective alternative. In the urban context, due to housing shortage and unaffordable market prices, an adaptable housing strategy is needed. This thesis takes place in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Scarborough has a diverse history in urban development. As the city center continues to grow and public transit spreads outwards, the suburban context has the potential to transform into a new urban core. This study investigates an alternative dwelling form that can fit into the present living model between generations. By developing housing typology, it seeks to address how multi-generational high-density living could form a sustainable neighbourhood and provide a healthy living community. | en_US |
