This concept design explores affordable housing that supports active travel, communal living, and compact, low-carbon development in the heart of Old Market.
The proposal re-imagines the 20th-century deck-access typology for a new generation of city residents, creating sociable, play-friendly walkways and shared spaces that prioritise connection, safety, and visibility.
