HOUSING TYPOLOGY
Housing is the offer of a physical structure for living, lodging, or shelter, covering a
variety of alternatives from houses and apartments to emergency accommodations
and temporary shelters. Housing provides that the members of society have a place
to live.
The concept of “housing typology" describes how various home kinds are categorized
according to their features and characteristics. It involves identifying and
evaluating a number of factors, including spatial structure, building materials,
architectural style, and cultural historical significance.

High income group, medium income group, low income group are main
parameters to categorised housing typology.
LIG housing category that targets people in this income group compromises a
single unit in a multi- storey building or a unit of 60 square meters. Such units
include basic facilities like toilets, electricity and water supply, etc.
Middle income group is divided into two categories, MIG-1 and MIG-2. The
catergorisation is done based on annual income. People with a yearly income
between Rs. 6 lakh to Rs. 12 lakh fall under the MIG-1 category. If a person
earns between Rs. 12 lakh to Rs. 18 lakh, they fall under the MIG-2 category.
High income group includes households whose annual income is above Rs. 18
lakh. People under this category are eligible for more carpet area and extra
amenities like 3 BHK flats, duplexes, bungalows, etc.CASE STUDY ON BUNGALOW- ENSO VILLA
Plot size, sun trajectory, family needs, and climate were all factors taken into
consideration when designing the structure, which blends plant life, water, sky,
building, and human contact. The structure's parts work together to maximize
space functionality and create a single cohesive unit. Urban environments that
are biophilic resurrect the city. Urban space quality is enhanced by green
architectural and interior interventions that reestablish the urban axis.

They decided on a design with six tenements on one floor, all of different sizes and
orientations, as opposed to the original concept of four similar tenements per floor.
This indicates that residential apartment buildings in India, which primarily target a
similar type of consumer base, typically have a straightforward Mirror-type of
symmetry. In other words, a building with three bedroom apartments (3BHK) could not
often include one bedroom (1 BHK) kind of tenements, and vice versa. This issue
contributes to the unjust division of society created by isolated areas in design. In an
effort to disprove this notion, they attempted to provide all three common size options
-a one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom tenement-on a single floor. The
goal here was to provide the clients with a constructed environment in which the size
and cost of the individual units would vary, but the social standing and sense of
happiness and contented ownership would remain constant among the occupants. This
choice not only offered the architectural planning a more inclusive character, but it
also turned out to be effective in making use of the plot's entire built-up potential,
