Cambridge Recuperative Housing

Affordable housing for patients recovering from health issues in the town of Galt.

This project draws on motifs common to Galt to situate the project within the heritage of the town. Porches, slate, gardens, and bay windows are incorporated to make the home life of its users restorative and comfortable.

The project is designed to support its users with various community programs such as gardening, communal dining, a community front porch, as well as helping its users remain engaged with the community. Using simple lumber construction in creative ways, the project remains affordable, reducing the burden on recovering people, while also creating interesting spaces that users can take pride in.
