The new model from 'Sustainable Residential Development and Compact Settlements, Guidelines for Planning Authorities 2024' offers a solution for creating more #affordable housing options to #build and sell. To ensure #sustainable growth through compact, well-planned #neighbourhoods, new developments must be well-designed and strategically located in well-serviced and #accessible areas. #Density studies in Part 3 of our series, explore options for achieving densities of 38, 50, 53, and 80 #units/hectare through integrating different #housing typologies. #mdoarchitects #mdoprojects #ShapingTheFuture #irisharchitecture #architectureireland #sustainability #residential #planning #sustainablehousing #publicspaces #compactsettlements

Exploring new frontiers in urban living, today's video dives into the trend of building smaller homes on smaller lots. Join our host, Matt Risinger, as he uncovers the challenges and unique solutions behind constructing laneway houses in Toronto, a city facing a housing crunch. These compact accessory dwelling units are not just densifying neighbourhoods but are doing so sustainably, adding rental units or multi-gen living spaces. However, they require serious regulatory knowledge, innovative workarounds, and a delicate balancing act between code compliance and construction freedom. Witness how prefab panels, screw down foundations, and continuous insulation are used for resilience without excavation, and how the new HCRA introduces transparency through robust training standards. The video also addresses the industry's labour shortage, emphasizing the importance of inspiring the next generation of tradespeople. From hinging walls for tight spaces to future-proofing with metal siding, this project showcases the cutting edge of construction in compact urban infills. Stay tuned as we delve into the challenges and solutions behind this new wave of urban living #SustainableConstruction #MassTimber #GreenBuilding #Construction #CLT #Glulam #Efficiency #NoWaste #ClimateChange #HighPerformanceBuild #RenewableEnergy #Design #SmallHouse

Before renovating your home, it’s essential to take the right steps so the project is a success, and you get the result you want. As an architect, I’ve not only helped customers with plans, but also been involved during the building process to guide them on certain elements. Depending on the amount of work needed, you’ll have to consider a few important factors. Certain changes may need approval from town planning or your homeowner’s association. This article shares some helpful information with the essential pre-renovation checklist. https://lnkd.in/eJ_PD8Za #Renovations #BuildingChanges #Sustainableliving #LucidlinkArchitects #PropertySouthAfrica
