South African Transformative Housing
Capstone for my junior-level qualifying project
This project aims to assist the City of Cape Town's Human Settlement Directorate (HSD) in proposing for an innovative housing model that would be sustainable and integrative. My team interviewed engineers, urban planners, NGOs, and marketing experts and conducted documentary research through case studies of similar projects and legislative documents outlining government policies. We synthesized 9 key findings addressing the lack of social amenities, importance of location, need for collaboration, and social inequities in Cape Town. We also created a document we called "Proposed guidelines for a Transformative Housing Model."
