This event features an exclusive showing of a film covering the Making Room design showcase held last November by the Citizen Housing & Planning Council (CHPC) and the Architectural League of New York.

Our Making Room initiative– looking at how demographic shifts are creating a need for new architectural designs, planning, zoning, and housing policies, and program assumptions– has been well-received, inspiring the government’s new adAPT pilot to develop a building of mini-studios.

Together with a panel of housing and planning experts audience members will also fill out, and evaluate, an interactive survey that will test assumptions about housing design, occupancy rules, housing programs and much more.

Free for Members
