Having fun with housing — infill, cohousing and courtyards
Event description
Living Lab Talks:
Having fun with housing — infill, cohousing and courtyards.
A conversation with Caro Robertson and Tim Gittos from Spacecraft Architects (NZ)
Spacecraft was formed out of an interest to design with an economy of means, for the environment, affordability, and beauty. They believe in extending the role of the architect to advocate for and support alternative ways of living and development.
Having fun with housing will explore working towards, and experiences with cohousing — specifically where groups of individuals pool their resources to build denser, in some cases multi-generational housing, with a shared social space at heart.
Spacecraft Architects, established in 2012 by Caro Robertson and Tim Gittos, emerged from a self-built house in Whanganui, NZ. They specialise in designing small, budget-conscious, custom houses for creative clients on complex sites. We firmly believe that project constraints foster design innovation and beauty. Spacecraft expertise in infill housing has expanded to larger projects, including multi-residential and apartment cohousing initiatives.
