Flexible housing is housing that can adjust to the changing needs of the user and accommodate new technologies as they emerge. Flexible Housing by Jeremy Till and Tatjana Schneider examines the past, present and future of this important subject through over 160 international examples. Specially commissioned plans, printed to scale, together with over 200 illustrations and diagrams provide fascinating detail and allow direct visual comparisons to be made. Combining history, theory and design the book explains the social and economic benefits that can be achieved and shows the various ways it has been and can be delivered. The book ends with an accessible guide to how flexible housing might be designed and constructed today to achieve adaptable and ultimately sustainable buildings. Housing designers, housing managers and students of architecture, construction and housing will find this book of immense value both as a comprehensive reference and design manual.

Cities are not only places that house buildings; they are also spaces where cultural and social relations are built and developed. These properties must be taken into consideration when constructing and renovating new housing. Different methodologies can be used in order to create new flexible solutions for mass housing units’ interior spaces with the aim of improving their adaptability by using a user-centered approach. Re-Coding Homes Through Flexible Interiors: Emerging Research and Opportunities is an optimal resource that investigates how interior design models can transform existing spaces into more flexible and functional housing units while also increasing the functional value and spatial quality of living spaces in social housing. The book specifically discusses how genetic algorithms, a generative design approach, are used to solve nonlinear design problems. It also provides results that can be referenced based on actual domain data, which can be used as references to other architectural and interior design approaches. Featuring research on topics such as housing design and mass housing, this book is ideally designed for architects, engineers, interior designers, furniture designers, construction companies, architecture firms, practitioners, academicians, students, and researchers.

Flexible housing draws the attention of academics and researchers for its volatile nature that can be applied based on the changing needs of users. Research has shown that, since its inception at the beginning of the 20th century, flexible housing has always been considered a means of tackling emerging social needs rather than architectural trends. Considering the rapid social changes that affect housing today, the last few decades have seen an increase in the use of flexibility in different housing projects. However, despite its perceived relevance and current presence, flexible housing has yet to be thoroughly investigated to discover how well it serves its intended purpose, particularly in the context of Germany, which is one of the world's pioneers in this domain. This dissertation aims to provide an insight into flexible housing to fill this research gap by providing an overview of flexible housing in Germany, and by highlighting its history, its developments, and the present situation. In this context, a field survey of six case studies, each characterized by a different type of flexibility, investigates the extent to which residents have used flexibility and their primary reasons for modifications in the floor plan configuration. By doing so, it investigates the potential of flexible housing as a mechanism to address the social changes of the users. For this research, a mixed quantitative and qualitative research methodology was used, combining a field survey with questionnaires and interviews with residents of the six case studies by using the chain sampling technique. The investigation reveals that residents in these case studies made extensive use of flexibility, which is due to a variety of social factors, including demography. The results indicate that flexible housing in Germany is used to a good extent by the residents. On this basis, these findings suggest that housing flexibility has the potential to be a good way to deal with users' changing needs. However, further study is needed to support this research, including a broader number of case studies.

Before discussing the research itself in greater depth, it is beneficial at this stage to introduce the background to the research. To do so, the chapter is divided into four parts. The first part of the chapter summarises terminologies associated with adaptability, and goes on to define and elaborate on the meaning of adaptability in this research study. The second part of this chapter defines mass housing; the development of mass housing and its problems are also illustrated. In the third part, as the key solution for addressing housing occupants’ requirements and accommodating changes, the importance of adaptability in improving overall housing quality, particularly from a social, financial, and environmental point of view, is outlined. The sustainability of adaptability is also discussed. Even though studies of adaptability have been developed structurally, functionally, technically and financially, adaptability still occupies a marginal position due to the production of mass housing. The final part of the chapter rethinks the notion of adaptability for mass housing. Factors of mass housing related to social, financial, technical and design issues and which address adaptability are explored. Lastly, it is revealed that the design aspect of adaptability is chosen as the research focus in this research study.
