Design Intent:
The design intent for this domestic space project should be to create functional, com-
fortable, and aesthetically pleasing living spaces that meet the needs and desires of the
target end-users. This might involve considering factors such as the size and layout of the
spaces, the materials and finishes used, the level of natural light, the provision of storage
and other functional amenities, and the overall aesthetic.
The planning and placement is based on Vista focused maping, which is a sartegy from
last assignment.
In terms of aspirations, the goal for this project should be to create a high-quality, attrac-
tive, and sustainable domestic environment that sets a new standard for urban living.
This could involve incorporating innovative design features and technologies, utilizing
sustainable materials and construction methods, and creating a sense of community
and connection within the development.
Additionally, it is important to consider the surrounding context and how the domestic
spaces fit into the wider urban environment. This might involve considering factors such
as access to public transportation, the provision of green spaces and community ame-
nities, and the integration of the development into the existing street grid and built form.
Overall, the design intent and aspirations for this domestic space project should be guid-
ed by a deep understanding of the end-users and their needs and desires, as well as a
commitment to creating high-quality, sustainable, and livable urban environments.

impact of vistas
Why views are important?
The views that residents have access to from their apartments can
greatly impact their quality of life and daily experiences. Different
views can evoke different emotions and create different moods,
and it is important to understand how different views will impact dif-
ferent personas and demographics. For example, views of nature
or green spaces may be more appealing to families with children,
while views of bustling city streets may be more attractive to young
professionals.
The cost of an apartment can also be greatly impacted by the views
it offers. Apartments with unobstructed views of iconic landmarks
or popular tourist attractions may command higher prices, as they
offer a unique and desirable experience to residents. On the oth-
er hand, apartments with views of less desirable locations, such as
noisy industrial areas, may command lower prices.
It is also important to consider how different views will affect
different people in different ways. For example, views of natural
landscapes and greenery may provide a sense of peace and
tranquility for some residents, while others may find them boring
or unappealing. Views of bustling city streets may offer a sense
of energy and excitement for some residents, while others may
find them noisy and stressful.
In conclusion, when designing a residential development proj-
ect, it is important to carefully consider the views that residents
will have access to. A comprehensive understanding of the dif-
ferent views and their effects on different personas and demo-
graphics will ensure that the project is well received by its end
users and will also play an important role in determining the cost
of the flats.

impact of vistas

Psychological impact:

Views from a residential apartment can have a positive impact

on the mental well-being of its residents. For example, a scenic
view of a park or water body can provide a sense of calm and
relaxation, while a view of a bustling city can be energizing and
invigorating.

Lifestyle:

Views can also have an impact on the lifestyle of residents. For ex-
ample, a view of a park or water body can provide opportunities
for outdoor recreation, while a view of a bustling city can provide
access to cultural and entertainment amenities.

Demographic:

Views can also appeal to different demographic groups different-
ly. For example, young professionals and families may prefer views
of parks and open spaces, while older adults may prefer views of
scenic landscapes.
The psychological impact of views, or vistas, on individuals is a topic
that has been extensively researched in the field of environmental
psychology. Some studies have found that access to natural vistas,
such as views of forests, parks, or water, can have a positive impact
on individuals' mental health, well-being, and cognitive function.

For example, a study published in the journal "Landscape and Urban

Planning" found that exposure to green spaces, such as parks and
gardens, can have a positive impact on individuals' mood and de-
crease symptoms of depression and anxiety. Similarly, a study pub-
lished in the "Journal of Environmental Psychology" found that views
of water can have a calming effect and improve individuals' atten-
Privacy: tion and cognitive function.

Views from an apartment can also affect the privacy of its resi-
dents. For example, a view of a busy street or a neighboring build-
ing can be intrusive and reduce privacy, while a view of open
space can provide more privacy. Design elements like louvers
can also ensure privace
On the other hand, exposure to urban vistas, such as views of busy
roads or high-rise buildings, has been found to have a negative im-
pact on individuals' well-being. For example, a study published in the
"Journal of Environmental Psychology" found that exposure to urban
vistas can increase feelings of stress, anxiety, and dissatisfaction with
one's environment.

Sun path

The orientation of vistas towards the sun is often a deliberate design

choice in architecture. Buildings and spaces are planned to maximize
the amount of natural light and warmth that can be captured from the
sun, which not only improves energy efficiency but also has a positive
impact on human psychology. Sunlight has been found to boost mood
and increase levels of vitamin D, which is important for overall health.

Therefore, by orienting vistas towards the sun, architects and designers can
create spaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also promote
well-being and comfort for users. Additionally, the orientation of vistas to-
wards the sun can also help to regulate the temperature of the space, re-
ducing the need for mechanical heating and cooling systems.

The house’s open and transparent design
allows for panoramic views from its terrac-
es and large windows. The views from the
house are a defining feature of its design
and one of the main reasons for its popu-
larity. Libera designed the house with the
views in mind and maximized the natural
light to bring the outside inside. The flat roof
terrace, with its sweeping views, is a high-
light of the house and was designed as an
outdoor living area.

Project Description:
Robin Hood Gardens, designed by archi-

pleted in 1972, was a similar social housing
project located in the Poplar district of East
London. The project was intended to pro-
vide high-quality housing for working-class
families, but it was criticized for its design
and construction quality, and eventually
fell into disrepair. In 2008, the government
announced plans for the estate’s demoli-
tion, which was completed in 2019.

provide social housing for the East End of
London.
In terms of design, the Golden Lane Com-

The 4 major modules in the project have some com-

mon components that are shared throughout. These
components are the basic necessities of a residential
space, such as a bedroom, a bathroom, a kitchen,
and a living room. The planning and arrangement of
these components are also similar across the mod-
ules, with some variations based on user personalities
and vistas.

For instance, the bedrooms of introverted types are

extended to provide a more secluded and private
space, while the living rooms of extroverted types are
extended to accommodate more socializing and in-
teraction. These variations are not drastic, and they
only serve as an extension to the existing plan.

In this way, the planning and arrangement of the

modules are optimized to provide the residents with
comfortable and practical living spaces that cater to
their individual needs and preferences.

In the end, this project explored the relationship between vistas
and human psychology in architecture, using five case studies
as examples. The case studies showcased how architects have
incorporated vistas into their designs and how these vistas have
positively impacted the users of the buildings. It was found that
vistas can play an important role in enhancing the user experi-
ence by providing a connection to nature and the outside world.

Additionally, the project proposed several patterns for incorpo-

rating vistas into architectural designs, such as persona-based
planning layout, diverse living spaces, optimized viewing decks,
and vista-based orientation. These patterns were developed
based on the analysis of the case studies and were intended to
serve as a guide for architects and designers.

Furthermore, the project explored the relationship between vis-

tas and MBTI personalities, suggesting that the design of spaces
could be tailored to meet the needs and preferences of differ-
ent personality types.

In conclusion, this project demonstrates the importance of incor-

porating vistas into architectural designs and how they can pos-
itively impact the well-being of users. It is hoped that this project
will inspire architects and designers to consider the role of vistas
in their designs and create spaces that are not only functional
but also promote a sense of connection to the environment and
the outside world.
