Architects and designers are producing more affordable housing concepts to address issues of cost-efficiency, production and other elements of urbanization. We are expected to see more creative solutions to housing crises as populations in cities grow and the infrastructure struggles to accommodate that, along with certain economic factors that contribute to poverty.
The affordable housing concepts in this list are diverse, however, there are a few features that come up again and again. One of them is modularity, as architects realize that for something to be superbly functional, it needs to adapt well and fast. Another characteristic is the use of innovative technology to reduce the cost of construction, while a third recurring element is the adaptation of shipping containers.
