Embracing Community Living: A Co-Housing Proposal (Design Experiment and Research) for Professional Women 45+

As modern living evolves, co-housing offers a promising solution for fostering community, sustainability, and shared responsibility. My project, “Connecting: Co-Housing,” developed at Victoria University of Wellington by Hardik Devani under Dr. Jan Smitheram, is designed for professional women aged 45 and above, emphasising communal living and mutual support.

Co-housing provides numerous benefits, enhancing social interaction, reducing isolation, lowering individual costs through shared resources, and promoting sustainable living practices.

Located at 5-11 Garret Street, the design includes open-plan communal spaces for cooking and dining, individual bedrooms and ensuites for privacy, a ground-floor commercial area for a café, art gallery, or research centre, and courtyards and recreational spaces for outdoor activities.

Architectural features include entry, lockers, bike storage, refuse collection, and a mechanical room on the ground floor. Levels 1 and 2 feature separate dwellings for each group, with living areas, kitchens, dining spaces, and additional bedrooms.

This project draws on insights from Trish Becker-Hafnor’s TED talk on community and connection, James Berghan’s work on Māori co-housing, Juli Carrere et al.’s research on the health benefits of co-housing, and Donnelly et al.’s guidelines for older women’s housing.

“Connecting: Co-Housing” balances communal living with personal privacy, fostering a vibrant and supportive community. As we innovate in housing, co-housing offers a sustainable and inclusive path forward for professional women seeking both independence and connection.

Explore the project plans and share your thoughts. Let’s build a future where community and sustainability thrive.

As the year comes to a close, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on all that has happened in the past year. First and foremost, I am grateful to have led and operated Devani Architecture, which will be three years old after the new year!

It has been a journey, and I am thankful to everyone who has supported me along the way, including those who have offered me their support and constructive criticism.
I am also proud of my current and former team members, who have been instrumental in our success. In my role as young personnel, the biggest learnings came from exploring the unknown and new by making daily business decisions - I am grateful to all who supported me, both when I made the right decisions and the not-so-right ones.

After the holidays, I am looking forward to reconnecting with my loved ones whom I have not been able to see in person for a while.

2022 has been a year of growth and learning for me, and I want to take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy new year and holidays.

I will be taking some time to travel and spend time with my family in the coming months and will be focusing on my well-being before I return to share my energy with everyone in 2023.

Let's learn more, share well, design freely and construct safely, & aim to make 2023 the best year yet!

Thank you for the pic .x.y , ai ni 💕
