Making Housing Home
published Mar 25, 2007
This photographic exhibition explores how people inhabit housing to create homes in two of New York City's affordable housing developments, each of which were developed to provide good homes for all.
Because units of housing are in essence homes for families, this project takes an interior look at what architecture can allow and support, to afford the crucial process of making space for oneself within designed spaces and housing markets.
If social housing reflects the social covenant of our society, what is it to which every citizen is entitled?
What does it take for a life to flourish and can a building help or hinder this process?
What becomes of designed spaces once they are inhabited?
