Abstract
Liveable Social and Affordable Higher Density Housing SBEnrc project is investigating liveable and affordable higher density housing opportunities, with a focus on urban precincts. Key topics considered in this project include: 1) Liveability outcomes, including accessibility in both medium and high density housing and the urban precinct. 2) Adoption of liveable design elements, highlighting successful best practice examples, and identifying pathways for adoption and barriers to uptake. 3) Understanding the value equation through capturing and demonstrating social and economic benefits to the broader community. 4) Exploring next generation thinking in order to maximise future infrastructure benefits and minimise future risks. The adoption of liveability and accessibility outcomes and elements in Australian homes has been limited in past decades due, in part, to a perceived imbalance between costs and benefits. Given that adoption of accessibility has been problematic in current low and medium density environments, embedding accessibility elements in an evolving higher density environment will experience similar, if not more acute hurdles. This research has included a review of literature, along with the consideration of best practice examples, to identify barriers to past adoption of liveability and accessibility elements and provide options for future activity.
