Adaptive Living (Glasgow)
Description
In many cities today, the cost of housing is becoming a serious problem, and people are finding it harder to afford a place to live. This challenge is forcing people to rethink what "home" really means.
In Glasgow, the housing affordability crisis is pushing residents to explore new ways of living. For some, this might mean sharing spaces with others, living in co-housing communities, or even looking at creative alternatives like tiny homes. These changes aren’t just about finding cheaper places to live—they’re reshaping how we think about home and community.
So, how might modern citizens in Glasgow redefine the idea of "home"? What new living arrangements are popping up as a response to these economic pressures? And how will these shifts impact different parts of the city, including the city centre where many young people live, work, and hang out?
This project explores these questions, aiming to understand how the concept of home is evolving in a city facing serious affordability issues. If you’re curious about how people are adapting to these challenges and what the future of living in Glasgow might look like, this project is for you.
