MLA Alum's Thesis Aids in Designing Community for People on the Brink of Homelessness
The Homervillage master plan is a 65.2 acre development, consisting of 30 tiny home units with three different floor plan options. The goal for this master plan was to design a community for people experiencing chronic homelessness or close to becoming homeless by giving a helping hand. Early research and initial design concepts were developed by Anna Marie Scoccimaro's master's thesis. Ameliorating Homelessness Through the Built Environment explored the research behind communities that help people experiencing homelessness to thrive once again.
