Intervening On ‘Building As A Product’ and ‘Habitation As A Service’ in Contemporary Urban Settings For Adaptive Micro Habitation Design – Indicative Global Case Studies

Written by

Increasing population in urban areas has put up additional pressure on urban and city resources. Housing, being in
one of the three basic amenities required for human survival, is the worst hit. Widening income disparity, lack of
space, and costly construction has added to the misery. This has become a worldwide phenomenon and is posing
challenges to Indian cities as well. To bridge this gap between need and fulfillment, can architecture be considered as
a service? rather than an end product; for those who need it severely and doesn’t have capacity. A possibility is being
explored to how the same can be planned? The paper tries to find out an opportunity to consider architecture as a
service and plan micro habitats in the urban areas as an extension to the existing infrastructure.
