A Home for Everyone

How can design solve life’s wicked questions?
As part of Singapore Design Week 2018, we've partnered with Grounded to explore this question from the perspective of housing and homelessness.
Most cities struggle to address this dilemma in a sustainable way and this is where Singapore has achieved remarkable success. Grounded will exhibit a full-scale replica of a home of a Mumbai street dweller. We will accompany the main exhibit with stories of the homeless people who have
purchased a weatherHyde.
The stories will provide a true and touching account of success through design, and present how clever and articulate design can be a powerful tool in providing safety and dignity to the poorest communities in the world.
