Architecture Thesis Project – Introduction
● A slum is predominantly an over crowded area which is in
advanced state of decay where dwellings are unfit for human
habitation .
● It is an area which lacks the basic amenities like water supply
and drainage for standard living and where an unsanitary
condition prevails and disease flourishes
● Slum is a poverty-striken area where there is high birth rate,
infant mortality, illegitmacy, crime and death, thus represents
the state of hell on the surface of earth.
●Unhealthy conditions are created due to absence of public
facilities like water supply, drainage, sanitation and light.
●The sub human conditions of the slums considerably affect the
health and life of people, there is complete absence of social
and cultural life due to slum formation in the city, the
overcrowding area is full of noise, smoke and congestion, this
affects considerably on the working conditions of the people in
offices, schools, hospitals etc.

town houses . The aim was to provide affordable and flexibles
homes for low-income groups.

had two main public spaces
●The spaces in each townhouses were divided into two modules
based on the function . 8 inch*12 inch for compact spaces and
14 inch* 12 inch for large spaces like living room.

adequate public and community spaces.
