“OurStory: Creating Aging-Ready Housing” exhibition


You’re invited to join us on December 16 for “OurStory: Creating Aging-Ready Housing” The “OurStory: Creating Aging-Ready Housing” exhibition by the University of Nebraska College of Architecture’s FACT Studio, runs December 16 through January 10 at Dundee Bank’s Benson Branch. “OurStory” takes aim at the housing crisis and silver tsunami. The exhibition focuses on a new housing product, also called OurStory, that was designed during a Fall 2024 semester-long process by 13 graduate-level architecture students who are members of FACT, a collaborative student designbuild studio at the University of Nebraska College of Architecture. The project is under the mentorship of Jeffrey L. Day, FAIA, Professor of Architecture and Landscape Architecture and founding partner of Actual Architecture Company. The students designed an aging-ready prototype that fills the gap in the local market for constructible and financeable small house designs that can function as standalone homes, accessory dwelling units to existing homes, or as part of dense cluster communities.
