dc.description.abstractAI-GENERATED ABSTRACT: Abstract: This research paper examines the housing crisis in Hong Kong and explores the potential of interior transformation to improve collective living conditions in large-scale housing. The paper discusses the need for affordable housing and the challenges faced by different demographic groups, such as young adults, the elderly, and low-income families. The concept of co-living is explored as a solution to the housing shortage, with a focus on its benefits in terms of sustainability, mental health, and social connection. The methodology involves secondary research, including literature reviews, case studies of co-living models, and statistical analysis of population density in Hong Kong. The thesis also includes a design proposal for improving the living conditions in a specific building, the Chungking Mansions. Overall, the research aims to provide insights and potential solutions for the housing crisis in Hong Kong. Keywords: Housing crisis, interior transformation, co-living, collective living, affordability, Hong Kongen
