CommunityScale

Housing fingerprint visualizer

We collaborated with artist Roni Kaufman, who used code to visualize our housing data. The work explores three key metrics: the relative share of housing by structure type, the share of structures built since 2015, and vacancy rates.

The result is a fingerprint of that community’s housing. Because the images are generated by p5.js on each run, every image is unique and we are able to customize the colors for clients.
