Monotonous Housing

On the variety ​of Housing typologies for urban regeneration, 2019

Project origin: Mexico City, Mexico

Exhibition: Currently showcased at GSD Kirkland Gallery, Cambridge Massachusetts

Housing plays a fundamental role in urban regeneration; besides being the critical mass of any urban strategy, It is a primordial space for human development.

The piece questions Mexico’s lack of affordable housing dedicated to diverse sectors of the population. It also reflects on the value of each presented housing type and their potential as an urban regenerator.

Ultimately, the proposal questions current public policies who promote a mono-functional housing model and underlines the absence of incentives for the development and creation of new housing typologies.

Housing types:

Multifamiliar/ Family housing

Interés social/ Social housing

Progresiva/ Incremental housing

Colectiva-vecindad / Collective housing

Unifamiliar/ Single family housing

Description: 2.5 X 5 cm Polymer clay
