Level 3 : The Home Project

The homeless centre within the office building aims to seamlessly integrate support to services, temporary housing, and spaces for communities to engage within. By repurposing the existing office space in Haymarket, the design fosters a dignified and inclusive environment, addressing the immediate needs of the homeless population in the area while promoting a sense of belonging and empowerment through thoughtful spatial planning and resource accessibility.

The existing floor was perviously used for a tutoring business, which ranged with spaces like classrooms, student breakouts and labs. We plan to create an environment which allows the homeless community of Haymarket to access a safe space to feel accommodated and finding the need to building a relationship with the idea of finding those who want the help to change their lives in a positive way. In order to reuse the existing office space to accommodate to these needs, we have created spaces such as sleeping quarters, laundry services, legal services, etc.
