The Multispecies Community investigates how more-than-human theory addresses the importance of designing beyond an anthropocentric view. Derived from vernacular architecture, the design of the community space responds to the current environment and inhabitants of the Lake Ōhau environs. By facilitating the cultivation of native flora and co-habitation of the site's multispecies, the space allows residents to support the regeneration of the post-fire-damaged landscape to aid in the healing of shared ecological trauma.
