This document summarizes a research paper on analyzing affordable housing in India. It discusses the large demand for affordable housing due to population growth and urbanization. The paper examines factors influencing affordable housing like income levels and infrastructure requirements. It provides details on two case studies - the Aranya low-cost housing project from 1989 and the ongoing Karimadam colony redevelopment project. Both aim to provide quality, affordable housing and improve living conditions for low and middle income residents through strategic master planning and community-focused design.
This project summarizes the Life Insurance Corporation housing development in Ahmedabad, India designed by architect Balkrishna Doshi in 1973. The development consists of 324 row houses arranged in duplex terraced units across 54 plots. There are three house typologies ranging from single bedroom to double bedroom units. The houses are designed to accommodate extended families and allow for flexibility over time. Shared courtyards and communal spaces encourage community and social interaction among residents.
Laurie Baker was a British architect who came to India in 1945 as a missionary. He lived and worked in India for over 50 years, obtaining Indian citizenship in 1989. Baker is renowned for his initiatives in low-cost housing and sustainable architecture using locally available materials. Some key aspects of his work included using cost-effective materials like brick, laterite, mud and cow dung in innovative construction techniques like rat trap bond. He designed over 1000 residences and 40 other buildings in Kerala emphasizing natural ventilation, privacy and historical influences. Baker received the Padma Shri award in 1990 for his contributions to architecture.
The document describes a public housing development called CIDCO Housing in Belapur, Navi Mumbai built between 1985-1996. It consisted of over 1000 apartment units ranging in size from 20-100 square meters organized into clusters. The development aimed to create public, semi-public, and private spaces through its site planning and layout. It featured amenities like schools, shops, and open courtyards but lacked some facilities like markets, hospitals, and parking. Both positive and negative feedback is provided from current and past residents regarding aspects like leakage issues, security concerns, and lack of nearby amenities.
SLUM REDEVELOPMENT THESIS ( REVAMPING VATHURUTHY- COMMUNITY INFRASTRUCTURE AN...SIJOMONACHAN
The thesis project started with the in-detail study of the Vathuruthy community through the research and studies done within the community it helps to understand about the needs and alignments of the community so by this we can understood what all the amenities are they needed. The project also envisioned the regenerating the potential of that place by introducing innovative architectural features.
From the 2011 census, it was understood that Kerala holds the largest number of Tamil migrant workers, which establish to almost 53% of the entire migrant work force in the state. Vathuruthy accommodates Kochi’s largest Tamil settlement of migrant laborers. This large cluster of residential networks of 8.5 acres land initially was bare land. Migrant laborers initially started settling under temporary shelters with around 12 families. The affordability factor led them to settle at Vathuruthy and the area started to grow gradually. It was also implicit that in the beginning, the Tamil migrant groups at Vathuruthy have adapted the single-room mass housing settlements, also the public spaces like main roads and streets turned to be spaces of for their recreational activity.
Migration is a very complex phenomena in the perspective of socio-cultural and economic life. Migrants are often represented as a ‘matter out of place' to be excluded from or integrated into an urban space. In Kerala, Tamil migrants constitute 53% of the total migrants in the state. With rapid urbanization and recent booms in the real estate markets in Kerala, the state's economy has seen an increase in the infrastructure and construction sectors, which indirectly draws a lot of migration as a part of this growing urbanization. This research intends to study the existing spatial politics associated with migrant laborers and the level of social inclusiveness in an urban setting. The research also aims to identify and explain the correlation with migration decisions and the concept of social exclusion. Different types of social exclusion faced by migrants are studied and the most vulnerable group of migrants is identified. In this context, the research also attempts to analyses spatial dimensions of social exclusion and argues that a socially inclusive spatial typology in an urban setting can reduce the social exclusion faced by the migrant labour community. Revamping can improve the quality and standard of living. supporting amenities such as primary health care facility, facilitation and development Centre migrants can uplift skill for their standard of living and provide an inclusive area and increase liability of the area.
The intention of the thesis project is to use architecture as a link between the community, ie by introducing architectural features for developing their interconnections. the architecture feature includes from the balconies to courtyards roof tops and all those feature helps in creating a communal space for them so through this the interactive spaces which were
This case study examines the CIDCO Housing development in Belapur, Navi Mumbai, which was constructed between 1988-1993 to provide low-cost housing. The development consisted of 1048 apartments arranged into clusters on a 9.5 hectare site. The units ranged in size from 20-100 square meters to accommodate different income levels. The housing was designed with a network of courtyards, pathways, and terraces to foster community interaction while maintaining privacy. Over time residents have made additions and modifications to the original structures.
Incremental housing is a gradual process where low-income families pay for and construct housing over time through a step-by-step process. It provides an alternative to expensive formal housing by allowing residents to improve their homes according to their means. Issues like rapid urbanization, lack of affordable housing, and the formation of slums have increased the need for incremental housing solutions. Effective approaches involve providing access to land, a basic core structure, and supporting policies to facilitate long-term housing development by residents.

The Aranya Community Housing project in Indore, India aimed to provide affordable housing for lower income groups through a planned, serviced site development approach. The 85 hectare site was divided into 6 sectors serving different income levels. The master plan emphasized a hierarchy of roads, open spaces, and mixed land uses to create integrated neighborhoods. Housing typologies allowed for incremental expansion over time. Core housing units provided basic facilities with flexibility for residents to customize indoor and outdoor spaces. Materials and construction methods were locally sourced and labor intensive to keep costs low.
Raj Rewal designed the Sheikh Sarai housing complex in New Delhi in 1970 as his first large-scale social housing project. The 550-unit complex was structured according to regulations to provide affordable self-housing and technical standards. Rewal drew inspiration from the dense, interconnected urban fabrics and narrow shaded streets of historical cities in Rajasthan like Jaisalmer and Udaipur. The complex features clusters of buildings organized around intimate courtyards and roof terraces, with segregated pedestrian and vehicular access. Materials and construction methods were chosen to be locally sourced and affordable.
Sheikh Sarai Housing Complex in New Delhi, designed by architect Raj Rewal in 1982, consists of 550 housing units arranged around shared courtyards in clusters. The complex draws inspiration from traditional Indian cities through its dense urban fabric organized around narrow, shaded streets and pedestrian pathways. Housing units are grouped around intimate courtyards and connected by a central spine, providing cross ventilation while maintaining privacy through perforated walls. The complex fosters community through its structured arrangement of shared outdoor spaces at various scales.
The document describes a low-cost housing project in New Delhi from 1972-1982 called Sheikh Sarai Housing. It was designed by architect Raj Rewal and developed by the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) as an affordable housing project for medium and low-income groups. The project consisted of 550 residential units organized into clusters of 3-4 story buildings around shared courtyards. Rewal's design used local, inexpensive materials and compact floor plans to keep costs low while still providing amenities like private outdoor spaces. The development was funded through a "Self Financing Scheme" where residents paid for their units in installments over the construction period.
The document describes the Artists Village housing project in Belapur, Navi Mumbai. It was originally built to house artists but now has mixed occupancy. The project demonstrated high-density affordable housing through low-rise courtyard homes arranged in clusters around shared spaces. While some design aspects like ample green space were successful, other issues emerged over time like a lack of parking and commercial spaces leading to encroachment. The unique village character has been lost due to urbanization, though security and community aspects remain.
Villa verde housing 2013 constitución by shubham harlalka.docxshubham harlalka
This project provided worker housing in Villa Verde, Chile following a severe 2010 earthquake. The architect Alejandra Aravena designed the homes using an incremental construction approach. Residents were provided an initial base build home that could be expanded over time as funds allowed. The base build comprised a kitchen/living area, bathroom and two bedrooms on the ground and first floors. An open space next to each home allowed for future expansion. This approach aimed to provide better quality initial shelters that could grow with residents' means, rather than building incomplete small homes.
The Incremental Housing project in CBD Belapur designed by Charles Correa featured clusters of 7-12 pairs of courtyard homes arranged to achieve high density using simple materials. Each family could independently extend their home, which started with a basic structure. Over time, many original homes were demolished and replaced with larger concrete structures, though the courtyard layout remained. While the flexibility initially provided benefits, maintenance of common spaces became an issue as the community changed.
Vernacular architecture in Kerala is influenced by the region's climate and availability of materials. Traditional houses have sloped roofs, verandas, and courtyards to deal with heavy rainfall. The Nalukettu house type, centered around a courtyard, was common for wealthy families. Temple architecture also uses local wood, tiles, and granite, with steeply pitched copper roofs resembling Himalayan styles. Materials like timber, thatch, laterite, and lime mortar are suited to the humid climate. Temple plans vary from circular to square, often containing a central shrine surrounded by cloisters and subsidiary structures.

The vernacular architecture of Kerala, a state located in the southwestern part of India, is renowned for its distinctive style, which is deeply rooted in the region's culture, climate, and natural resources. Here are some key features and characteristics of Kerala's vernacular architecture:
Climate-responsive design: Kerala experiences a tropical climate with heavy monsoon rains and high humidity. Vernacular architecture in Kerala is designed to address these climatic conditions, with features such as sloping roofs, overhanging eaves, and large windows for cross ventilation. These elements help in keeping the interior spaces cool and comfortable.
Traditional materials: The primary materials used in Kerala's vernacular architecture include wood, bamboo, clay, and laterite stone. These materials are locally sourced and readily available, making them sustainable and cost-effective.
Thatched roofs: Thatched roofs made of coconut palm leaves or grass are common in traditional Kerala architecture. These roofs are not only aesthetically pleasing but also provide insulation against heat and sound.
Wooden architecture: Wood is extensively used in Kerala's traditional architecture, especially in the construction of columns, beams, and intricate carvings. Teak and rosewood are commonly used due to their durability and resistance to pests.
Open courtyards: Many traditional Kerala homes feature open courtyards or central atriums, known as nadumuttam. These courtyards serve as gathering spaces for family members and provide natural light and ventilation to surrounding rooms.
Distinctive roof forms: The most notable feature of Kerala's traditional architecture is its unique roof forms. The most common type is the sloping gable roof, known as nadumuttam roof or Kerala roof, which typically extends beyond the walls to provide shade and protection from the rain.
Jali work: Intricate jali (lattice) work is often incorporated into the design of windows and walls to allow for ventilation while maintaining privacy and security.
Courtyard houses: Traditional homes in Kerala are often designed as courtyard houses, with rooms arranged around a central courtyard or veranda. This layout enhances natural ventilation and creates a sense of openness and connection with the outdoors.
Adaptive design: Kerala's vernacular architecture has evolved over centuries through a process of trial and error, adapting to the region's changing socio-cultural and environmental contexts. This adaptive design approach continues to be relevant today, with modern interpretations of traditional architecture incorporating contemporary amenities while preserving the essence of the original style.
Overall, Kerala's vernacular architecture reflects a harmonious relationship between humans and their environment, blending functionality with cultural aesthetics to create timeless and sustainable built forms.

Housing for Artisan: Assessment of the Housing Need and SolutionIRJET Journal
This document discusses housing needs for artisans in India. It notes that while artisans are important contributors to the economy and culture, they often lack suitable living environments and amenities to maintain their way of life. This can cause people to abandon their crafts and cultural traditions. The document proposes developing group housing for artisans to help them continue practicing their crafts and serving their communities. It reviews literature on housing policies and affordability in India, the scale of housing shortages, typical home sizes, and the potential of the handicrafts sector to provide economic and social benefits if artisans have better housing support. The proposed study will assess artisan housing needs, evaluate case studies of affordable housing projects, and develop design guidelines for new

This document discusses a novel model for rural housing development in India. It notes that while India has a growing economy, 70% of its population still lives in rural villages and there are 78 million homeless people. It then proposes a new housing model that uses low-cost materials like plastic glass bricks and a smart roof structure to provide lighting. The roof would use the Tyndall effect to let in ambient light during the day and solar panels to power LED lights at night. This would help provide affordable, stable housing while also addressing the lack of electricity access in many rural areas. The goal is to help alleviate homelessness and poverty in India by developing cost-effective, sustainable housing.
Novel model for rural housing developmenteSAT Journals
Abstract It was once said, that a man travels the world over in search of what he needs and returns home to find it. It underlines the basic need for every individual to have a roof above his head. The Indian growth story has caught the imagination of the entire world, as a sleeping giant awakens from its slumber. But the ground reality in the 9th richest country of the world, paints a different picture. 70% of the country’s population lives in rural villages, and there are 78 million homeless people despite the country’s growing economic stature. It becomes the duty of the nation to provide affordable and practical housing to its most important resource, its human capital. The main aim of this paper is to investigate on process and materials that provide affordable, efficient housing to the homeless of the country. It explores the possibilities of using low-cost substitutes to conventional building materials. It further attempts to enhance the living conditions in rural regions by developing alternate methods of generating electricity, smart roof structure to provide ambient light and a comprehensive business model to carry out implementation of such a project on a large scale. The housing technique discussed by this paper addresses the above issues by putting forward a blueprint for building a cleaner, brighter and prosperous tomorrow.
