(Co)Living in a Working District
Designing for the Future, the Year 2060: A Retrofit Project
Mariam’s final year project, (Co)Living in a Working District, explores the evolving landscape of London’s corporate and residential spaces in response to the global shift towards hybrid working. In wake of the pandemic, the City of London, once a hub for traditional office work, is experiencing a significant transformation. As businesses increasingly embrace flexible working arrangements, co-working and shared office spaces are reshaping the urban fabric. This shift opens up the possibility of reimagining urban spaces where residential, commercial, and recreational functions can coexist more seamlessly. Mariam’s project explores the potential for co-living to complement the rise of co-working, questioning whether it could become the future of urban living in London.
