Rachael Livingstone

Design Challenge Winner

Rachael Livingstone is entering her fourth year of architecture at the University of Dundee. Her work explores architecture as advocacy—focusing on inclusive, climate-resilient design for displaced communities. Her current research aligns with Design HOPES Challenge 2, reimagining vacant buildings as preventative care hubs through circular, community-led design, with equity and spatial justice at its core.

A collaborative project, funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, as part of the Future Observatory programme, and led by the University of Strathclyde and University of Dundee (DJCAD), with Heriot-Watt University, Abertay University, and the University of Edinburgh, NHS Scotland, industry partners, and public sector stakeholders.
