Abstract
<p dir="ltr"><b>Since the 1950s the suburban ideal of the quarter-acre section has characterised the Kiwi lifestyle. However, as New Zealand's cities develop, this way of life is becoming increasingly inadequate. Standalone homes are creating sprawl throughout cities. In Wellington, the population is increasing, with anticipated growth of up to 80,000 people over the next 30 years. Increased density will likely affect how the city looks, feels, and operates dramatically. In the future medium-density dwellings will make up a larger proportion of new housing.</b></p><p dir="ltr">The nuclear family, which was idealised in western society from the post-second world war period, has since evolved; the population is becoming dramatically more diverse with a range of different age and family profiles, creating demand for a broader range of housing options. While the family unit is still present, the population's ageing, divorce rates, blended families, childless and same-sex couples as well as group and individual family structures have significantly impacted contemporary households. These complexities produce pressures for adaptable housing on a national scale.</p><p dir="ltr">This thesis presents an exploration for meeting national density standards requirements while occupying a smaller footprint. The objective is to design a medium-density housing (MDH) residence using design strategies that provide a mix of housing types and allow homes to adapt to residents' changing lifestyles—exploring how medium-density housing can be reinvented to appeal to the Kiwi lifestyle challenging the notions of space and form. Overall, this research suggests how to meet the need for greater density by reconsidering aspects of dwelling design and their spatial disposition</p>

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
