Catalogue – Architecture and Homelessness: Inclusive Practices for a Supportive City

Drawing on a review of existing literature, the catalogue surveys spatial planning and design at every scale, from the City down to objects. It inventories more than 60 practices grouped into five major categories and illustrated using a variety of inspiring projects. The outcome of an initial year of research, it has been developed to inform and equip stakeholders in the design, community and urban development communities by presenting a portrait of architecture and design practices with the potential to improve the well-being of people in situations of homelessness. This project was made possible with the financial support of the Government of Québec and the City of Montréal, pursuant to the Entente de développement culturel de Montréal and the Fonds d’initiative et de rayonnement de la métropole.
