HYBRID HOUSING
Hybrid Housing with an element of a Library zone
This design is a combination of a housing element and a library element. The library term is taken loosely as a borrowing space for tools and other equipment that residents can pay a small fee to borrow. The housing element works to support those in the LGBTQ+ community and to create a centre for those who feel like they are not supported to come and relax in the quiet reading zones, or to chat with other members of the community.
​
This concept takes representation in the parallel lines used in the design. Each line does not stand alone, but is paired with another.
​
This is to represent how those in the LGBTQ+ community do not stand alone but are supported by those that use the building, as it is a safe space for those who identify as any part of this community for them to be who they are.
