LIVING IN REACH.
Collective housing designed for flexibility, proximity, and shared living in Bologna, Italy.
Designed for a range of residents—including artists, remote workers, families, and elderly users—the project prioritizes accessibility, adaptability, and shared living across generations.
Reframing how people live together through adaptable spatial systems.
Living in Reach is a collective housing proposal in Bologna that explores how spatial flexibility and shared living can support diverse user groups.
Positioned near cultural and educational hubs, the project introduces a new form of urban centrality, balancing private living with communal interaction to foster inclusivity, adaptability, and everyday connection.
Cluster Strategy.
The housing is organized into modular clusters that balance private, shared, and collective spaces. Each cluster supports flexible living arrangements while maintaining strong spatial relationships between residents.
Proposal.
The building is structured through a layered sectional system, enabling vertical connections between units and shared spaces. This organization supports both individual retreat and collective interaction within a compact footprint.
Typologies.
A series of unit types accommodates diverse living conditions, from compact individual spaces to multi-level configurations. Each typology is designed for flexibility, allowing spaces to evolve over time as user needs change.
