Can the single family suburb survive into a post fossil future? This project explores the financial and ecological conditions of suburbia and how this will shape its future. The conclusion is that in its current form there is little chance for it to survive, in fact it is already being deconstructed.With the aim to reduce sprawl and protect the commons, while trying to maintain some of the calmer and softer properties that makes the suburbs so attractive for many people.The proposal is therefore to place rowhouses as infill between the current housing stock, creating a more dense city which has a higher capability to sustain itself. This is to be supplemented by an urban strategy that provides community centres and retail spaces where needed (along with public transport and paths for walking/biking).The hope here is to create neighbourhoods that can sustain under the 15-minute city model, while also giving people the possibility to live way more ecologically than previously possible, without having to bulldoze or drastically reshape it.But most of all its meant to spark a discussion about how suburban neighbourhoods can transition into a fossil free future, can we get them there by their own volition and on its own terms or are the suburban life doomed to be left behind?
