A rapid response to a growing need
Responding to Cardiff’s housing challenge
Gasworks transformed a former industrial site in Cardiff into a vibrant community of modular homes. This project began as an urgent response to the city’s housing crisis and is now a benchmark for speed, quality and sustainability.
Cardiff had over 8,000 people on its housing waiting list and 1,400 families without a permanent home. Temporary accommodation costs were rising and short-term fixes were not enough. The city needed a long-term solution fast.
