The project proposes a new manifesto for housing in the city, by rejecting commodified housing types and creating a new system for the organization and delivery of housing based on type of user and designing with the primary goal as rental use. Homes are divided into, SELF CONTAINED, CLUSTERED & SINGLE DWELLING types, each type of unit then ranges from a scale of XS, S to M. Borrowing from the existing fishing village, Homes are created around a public spine, communal spaces and stacked to create a multiple paths of approach and usage.
