Keith Nathan Vincent Tiu, "Dwell Quest: Gamifying A Process for Toronto's Multiplex Revolution"

Dwell Quest is a design research project that aims to cultivate an engaging way of thinking about and challenging notions that surround Toronto's most recently established 2023 Multiplex By-Law. 

Inspired by the theoretical concepts and frameworks of Open Building by Dutch architect and educator, John Habraken, the study investigates the ways in which user participation and architecture can co-exist. 

The study does not aim to be the be-all-end-all solution for affordable housing within the city, but hopes to encourage a more flexible approach to housing design as family forms change in the city of Toronto.
