Abstract

The master thesis outlines a design proposal for future social sustainable housing on an abandoned site in Skive. As a housing project, the aim is to fight the decline in population the city of Skive is suffering from. To do so the housing project seeks to further develop the concept of sustainability, especially social sustainability, by incorporating social communities and common functions on the project site. The aim is further strenghtened by the placement of the buildings in a cluster typology on the site and by implementing nature as a key element, which not only characterizes the site, but the whole city of Skive as a proof of understanding of the context and its identity.
