Episode Details

James Forrest is pioneering a new era in New South Wales housing, aiming to complete homes using the governments affordable pattern book designs. His project in Corrimal involves four row homes, contributing to the states goal of building 112,000 homes over five years. The pattern book, featuring 17 low- and mid-rise designs, has seen significant interest, with over 21,000 copies sold and two projects underway. Architects see these homes as ideal for multigenerational families and downsizers, fostering a sense of community and reducing the need for tiny units. The initiative is part of a broader effort to address housing demands and ease the housing crunch.
