This course, part of a 5-course series filmed live at AIA Seattle’s 2025 Housing Forum, explores middle housing zoning and how architects, designers, policymakers and advocates can promote outcomes that balance density, affordability, equity and neighborhood character, especially in diverse lot types and urban contexts. Panelists discuss how Washington cities will be revising zoning codes to require a minimum density for middle housing on all residential lots, which promises to unlock needed room for housing, (re)legalize diverse types, and usher in more choices in areas historically reserved for low-density, high-cost real estate.

Moderated by Rob Humble Principal | Hybrid with presentations by Eric Kronberg | Kronberg Urbanists + Architects, Uytael Lee | About Here, and Yi-Chun Lin, NOMA, NCARB | Board & Vellum.

The housing landscape is constantly evolving—driven by new policies, shifting urban needs, and the complexities of implementation—especially following recent legislative updates and the proposed One Seattle Plan.

Transformative Housing: From Policy to Practice examines housing opportunities for creating a future of abundant, high-quality, diverse, and sustainable housing options in Seattle and beyond. Through deep dives into missing middle housing, homeownership, transit-oriented development, and social housing, this year’s forum takes a critical yet hopeful look at what’s working, what’s not, and what’s next for housing policy and design.
