High Density – Low rise : a Design Alternative to High-Rise

Rushank Mehta was involved in the documentation of poor settlements in Ahmedabad city, and developing design solutions for housing, as part of the project ‘urban poverty reduction strategy in Ahmedabad’ for MHT. A few design alternatives were developed on  an existing low-income housing site of AMC. These designs were developed with Matt Nohn. Ketanbhai and Pragneshbhai from MHT helped deriving the cost estimations. A presentation prepared by Matt Nohn using these house designs effectively captures development of high density- low rise housing instead of high-rise apartments. The presentation can be viewed here.
