Courtyard Continuum

Project type

Climate-Adaptive Residential Design

Courtyard Continuum explores how housing can function as environmental infrastructure rather than a collection of isolated buildings. Its integrated courtyard system supports water collection, seasonal reuse, and passive climate moderation while fostering social interaction among residents. The modular framework enables adaptation to varying densities and climates, allowing the concept to scale beyond a single site. By combining ecological performance with communal spatial experience, the proposal presents a practical approach to more resilient and resource-efficient urban housing.
