This presentation outlines the
evolution of landed residential typology developed in our practice over time
reflective of the myriad changing conditions and growth of the society and
nation.
•
The evolution sees the transformation
of rudimentary linked house typology - built based on speed and quantitative
approach to solving housing problems of the nation - to building community
based on qualitative appraisal of the environment and its sustainability.
•
The visuals are mapped through the
basic principles that their manifestations themselves have seen evolution over
time, namely: community _ identity _ safety & security _ amenity _
sustainability
•
With growing wealth brings choice and
qualitative appraisal from the people
•
With changing family and tenancy
makeup brings sophisticated and new hybrid, evolutionary typologies
•
With greater awareness in health and
well-being brings active lifestyle and connectedness to the outdoor
considerations
•
With rising crime rate defensible
space principles become relevant again in addressing safety and security
issues
•
With traffic congestions we integrate
building design with public transport and explore personal mobility
solutions, whilst accessibility to local amenities and services become more
important and integrated
