| Summary: | The objective of the research is to study innovative architectural solutions that improve the quality of life in urban environments by integrating natural elements into existing housing systems. The object of the study is requalification of the Grupo de Viviendas Antonio Rueda in Valencia with the aim of creating flexible and modular living spaces that adapt to evolving user needs while promoting a symbiotic relationship between residents and the environment. The project goes beyond sustainability and environmental quality improvement by actively engaging user-centred design methodologies to identify the preferences and needs of the inhabitants. This participatory approach ensures that the proposed solutions are not only sustainable but also socially inclusive and functional. The integration of modular and flexible design strategies allows for the evaluation of different spatial configurations and material applications, assessing their effectiveness in enhancing comfort and well-being. By utilising natural and recycled materials, the research establishes a framework for a balanced design approach that strengthens human-nature connections while improving the resilience and liveability of urban housing environments.
