3. Detached Home
-It is a free-standing residential building.
-Generally found in less dense urban areas the
suburbs of cities, and rural areas.
-Surrounded by a garden.
-Garages can also be found on most lots.
4. SEMI DETACHED
-They consist of pairs of houses built side by side as
units.
-They share a party wall.
-Usually each house's layout is a mirror image of its
twin.
-This type of housing is a half-way state between
terraced and detached houses.
5. 5
Terraced houses
-A row of identical or mirror-image houses.
-They share side walls.
- The first and last of these houses is called
an end terrace.
6. Apartment
The building will also be informed by :
a context analysis at a site and neighbourhood
scale.
Factors such site topography, natural features,
sun penetration, prevailing wind, access,
existing structures on adjacent sites and views
will help determine the most appropriate form
and massing for an apartment development.
There are three key elements to any apartment
building:
the overall form of the building
the type of access
the types of unit
7. Basic building forms are:
The Block
The Tower
The Courtyard
The Block
- Wider than it is tall.
- The apartments are arranged off a corridor (single, or double-
loaded).
The Tower
- Vertical form
- single centralized core
-The tower may have a base.
-The roof of the podium can be landscaped and used as open
space for the apartment residents.
Courtyard Apartments
provides the ‘sides’ open spaces (courtyards). The open spaces
are communal and should provide a high quality landscaped
environment and outlook.
8. Building access arrangement
Have big influence on the circulation spaces
access is organized vertically (i.e. a shared lift or stair core),
horizontally (i.e. a shared corridor off a core) internal or
external
individually (i.e. apartments having their own front door).
Individual 'own front door' access
-Entered directly from the street, courtyard or private stair.
-No communal circulation.
-Limited to one or two levels above ground.
- enhanced street activity through greater frequency of entrances.
- more privacy and individuality.
9. Vertical shared access
a greater degree of dwelling individuality.
vertical cores can be placed internally or externally.
vertical cores can bring light and air into communal areas.
greater potential for social interaction with neighbors, while
limiting the number of apartments to a manageable size.
a mix of apartment types can be achieved.
10. Horizontal shared access
Single-loaded corridor access
-The dwellings are accessed off one side only .
overall building depth is less.
the orientation of all apartments is towards a
preferred aspect.
external corridors allow for a naturally lit and
ventilated corridor
dwellings with cross ventilation if the
corridor is external.
11. Double-loaded corridor access
-Apartments are accessed off both sides of the corridor .
- The overall building depth is deeper than a singe-loaded
arrangement
- greater efficiency of circulation space compared to a single
loaded corridor.
- higher overall density of residential units.
-opportunity for more variety in apartment mix due to greater
building depth.
12. three key elements to describe an individual apartment type:
number of bedrooms
number of storeys
the number of external walls that have views to the outside
(single aspect, double aspect, or corner aspect).
Single aspect apartments
-Single aspect apartments have three closed sides (except for
the entrance).
-Good option for hillside housing or undesirable site condition.
- uses for a double-loaded corridor building that runs north-
south, so that all apartments receive either morning or
afternoon sun.
13. Double aspect apartments
-Placing double aspect units side by side is a common form of
arrangement.
- being able to repeat apartments while also maintaining the
maximum amount of external facade.
- If the apartment is too deep, natural light to the center can be
difficult.
14. Corner aspect apartments
-two sides that are exterior walls.
-This type is often used in tower buildings or at the ends of
linear buildings.
- Dual aspect and increased views, sunlight and daylight.
20. There are many types of houses and each one characterized by special character
and each one have different function, material and style.and made according to
a specific design.
Its better to use more than one type in a housing project.
Detached houses for privacy, luxury, free modification and addition, no
management fees…..
apartment blocks for economic, safety, Not responsible for any exterior
maintenance or repairs.
Different unit sizes for apartments for different family needs.
