Outdoor and WFH Spaces: Tools for Environmental Justice in Housing
C. Dahmubed
10:00 pm - 11:30 pm

Abstract

As awareness grew and has continued to grow about the triplet intertwined crises of the environment, social justice, and health, architects as creators of the built environment have an obligation to seek simple, effective, and multivalent solutions to these problems, designing efficient answers that punch above their weight to devilishly complex challenges. This session will explore how the establishment of regulations for well designed WFH and unit-specific outdoor spaces in urban housing, especially affordable housing, could help address these inequities and present opportunities for improved health and wellness. It will examine the ripple effects across unit, building, and urban design, the role of zoning and regulation as both facilitating carrot and stick, the impacts on affordable, market rate, and luxury developer pro formas, and metrics for measuring the benefits of establishing these two types of spaces as prerequisites for good urban housing. Participants will have the tools—including understanding regulatory and financial opportunities and constraints—to make informed arguments for increasing equity and ROI through the introduction of WFH and unit-specific outdoor spaces in housing when pitching to clients, and when advocating to regulatory bodies for zoning changes to improve housing equity.
