Our Work


ReHousing has been working to support housing creation since 2022.

ReHousing works to make the process of creating housing more accessible. Our projects combine design thinking with policy research to address the barriers that limit gentle density and community-led housing. Through collaboration with municipalities, community organizations, and industry partners, we develop applied research, design frameworks, and practical tools that translate complex regulatory, financial, and spatial data into actionable insight. Explore some of our recent projects below.
