Homefullness

Change-making conversations on housing for people and planet. Enabling more affordable, connected, and regenerative places to live. Aotearoa’s housing system is plagued with problems of unaffordability, of insufficient homes for the population, lack of diversity in housing typology, sprawl, low-quality unhealthy homes, housing insecurity, and more... A regenerative and collaborative approach is needed. There are innovative solutions, but they are not well known to the public and even to most housing role players. This show aims to fill the void in knowledge, highlight what is working well, and empower people with access to information and to a network of change makers.
