About this document

Parasitic Architecture and Homelessness by mchappm is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Parasitic architecture refers to the addition of usable space onto existing urban elements, often as a response to dysfunctional conditions. This architectural approach has evolved over time, highlighting the contrast with hostile architecture, which aims to deter certain behaviors but often exacerbates social issues. The thesis explores the implications of parasitic architecture in relation to housing for homeless individuals and the changing societal biases that influence urban design.
