From accessible housing design to the tiny house movement, and everything in between, what happens when people step outside the box in housing design and development? Join architect and housing advocate Jade Kake, disability rights advocate, essayist and poet Henrietta Bollinger and local visionary Miriana Stephens, who is leading Te Āwhina Marae's redevelopment project, in conversation with Min Hall.
With several major intentional communities, numerous yurt dwellers, a growing number of co-housing initiatives, a major papakāinga development, and tiny houses dotted throughout the valleys, Te Tauihu may be considered the heartland of innovative housing solutions in Aotearoa but it also has one of the most acute housing shortages and is one of the least affordable places to live in the motu.
In this solution-focused session, Min Hall facilitates a deep dive discussion about some of the possible solutions to the housing crisis that don't add to the climate crisis.
