Ep.14 Amy Degenhart - Exemplary missing middle housing

This week I sat down with Amy Degenhart, Director of degenhartSHEDD urban design + architecture.

Amy is the driving force (architect & developer) behind exemplar missing middle housing, including ENVI micro urban village in Southport, Gold Coast CBD. ENVI is an award winning exemplary small lot house and land development, featuring 10 terrace home ranging from 1 bedroom to 3 bedrooms.

Amy shares her passion and expertise in addressing the housing supply and affordability challenge within South East Queensland, through pioneering this new typology of housing, which delivers an affordable home in an inner city location, and exemplary design outcomes.

We discuss;

• the design thinking behind Envi
• What needs to change in policy and implementation to repeat Envi
• observations about benefits of co-designing houses and subdivision
• similarities with Queenstown

I hope you enjoy this discussion!
