About Us
ReHousing is a non-profit focusing on housing creation through applied research, consultation and education.
Our website is designed to empower citizen developers in converting single-family homes into multi-unit housing. As municipalities face the challenge of translating policy into more housing units, we bridge the gap between emerging policy initiatives and the housing creators they intend to serve.
ReHousing began as a collaboration between the University of Toronto, Tuf Lab and LGA Architectural Partners. This partnership brings together structured design research methods with practice-based knowledge to address real-world problems.
We are currently applying this research through collaborations with non-profit housing creators, development advisors and the City of Toronto’s planning group: Expanding Housing Options in Neighbourhoods (EHON).
Our work is generously supported by a research grant from the Neptis Foundation.
