INTRODUCTION

Housing is a concept of living community and dwelling for the habitants .Our project is to establish a housing communi ty at the dehradun site for thegovernment employees .Site is a bit of sloppy one with a gradual slope of 1: 18 . The hil ly cl imate and coldweather at doon gives us lots of opportuni ty for a good design .The views at the NW side of the site enhances the living standards. Thanks to the veryunique site conditions and its topography , which gives me the opportun ity for asustainable design .Total s ite area is 45000 sq. m. and we wil l l ike to uti lize 33% of i t .The site has great opportunity for a rain water harvesting concept and the courtyardplanning for the common spaces .

CASE STUDY 2

OLYMPIC VILLAGE- PARIS

Building Type : Public BuildingsYear : 2000

THE CLUSTERING PATTERN

They have designed the Olympic housing in a series of clusters around a variety of courtyardsin the French tradition of outdoor living.

This would promote athletes to mingle with each other and foster friendship between youngpeople of different nations and continents.



The height of building very from four to six stories and it would enclose courtyard of differentscales. The proportion of courtyard in St. Germain-de-pres (e.g. place de Fustemburg) or LeMarais forms the of basis of place making for athletes housing. The larger courtyard can beused for ceremonial purposes or play areas. The smaller courtyard would be utilized for socialgatherings by athletes.

THE CLUSTERING PATTERN



WATER AS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE COURTYARDS

Fusing the large courtyard of housingwith canals is an important feature ofdesign. These courtyards are builtaround the canal making the water anintegral feature of Olympic housing.

In fact we envisage a series ofbridges containing student housing tospan over the canal and connect it toa number of restaurants, outdoorcafes and recreational rooms on theouter end of the canal. Passagesacross the bridge would have viewingbalconies towards the canal.



CIDCO HOUSING ,NEW MUMBAI

CASE STUDY 3

Building Type : HousingYear : 1983

CLUSTER : The form of the tenement block is based on enhancing the courtyard

and roof terraces of the individual building and creating community spaces itself .



CIDCO Housing built in New Bombay in1998 faces the challenge of providing

low cost housing for approximately 1000units in Bombay. Proliferation of slums inIndian cities is a common feature.

Most of the tenements built in thiscomplex are of one or two rooms.Creation of a humane habitationfor very large numbers at theminimum cost was an

exceptionally difficult problem.

Diffirent other type of c lustering pattern , to enhance the open and semi open space layout



Building for large numbers is like writing along novel. War and peace can be readthrough from the beginning to end with itsdifferent chapters and sub-plotssustaining interest. Similarly, theMahabharta is a string of stories woveninto the fabric of one major composition.The challenge of mass housing, likewise,can be either approached like one longstory or as a series of interconnectedepisodes. Instead of building largemonolithic parallel blocks of grimdimensions, we opted for a different kindof settlement pattern.

The design for the large number ofdwelling units is fragmented into smalleraggregations enclosing a variety ofspaces, which can be cohesively arrangedon the sloping site of a hillock and strungtogether with pedestrian pathways.
