Item Relief in the City: A Cohousing Complex for Stressed Millennials(2019) Wan, Christina Huang; Williams, Brittany; Architecture; Digital Repository at the University of Maryland; University of Maryland (College Park, Md.)How can design induce relief? How can design create a stress-free living environment that fosters new relationships and community growth for millennials struggling to have a life outside work? This project focuses on implementing a cohousing community into the dense urban neighborhood of Shaw, DC. Due to the large millennial demographic and how Shaw is currently undergoing an urban transformation, the proposed program will assimilate well onto the site. The design is approached by understanding the social and environmental influences millennial workers go through in their daily lives, and how architecture, nature, and community can impact these users.
