Housing needs
Housing needs remain constant throughout time – shelter
and security. The manner in which housing design has
evolved is specific to the region of study as well as
advances in technology related to construction materials
and techniques.
The human condition is one that has been often studied, yet
not clearly identified. It has been possible to categorize
and analyze physical aspects as anthropometric data; we
know the average height, reach, mobility, and range for
humans of types. We are not yet able to accurately
predict the emotional aspects relative to behavior and
actions. This emotional aspect is the crucial
element to address in architectural design.
