A study on adding new housing atop an existing parking structure using lightweight timber construction demonstrating how this approach can enhance urban density while complementing the existing housing supply. Beyond providing additional housing, the strategy strengthens the neighborhood's identity and improves safety by increasing activity and natural surveillance. Timber's sustainable, lightweight properties make it an ideal material, offering an elegant solution to densification that balances environmental responsibility with urban quality and community well-being.
