The place underneath the large tree preserved in the project is designated as a planter area and a shared open space for the community. In this project, the Modular Integrated Construction (MiC) method was adopted, not only for reducing on-site construction processes and enhancing site safety, but also for facilitating relocation of the entire MiC module by disassembly, removal and reassembly for reuse in another location after exit of the project in future, whereby meeting the sustainability requirement of transitional housing project. “LST Housing” serves as a comfortable home to the grassroots.
