MODULAR SOCIAL HOUSING PROJECT 2

BACKGROUND

Jenga House

By offering an affordable social housing with a unique architecture of living, giving the residents of greater Male’ the opportunity to garden to have a sense of belonging. By using nature we can enhance the emotional qualities of this house. This way we can bring the people to emotional well-being.

Changing the circulation of the house we can create a unique place and bring an end to the idea of renting. By separating rooms such as living and bedroom which are public and private spaces respectively, we can fully functionalize the actual purpose of spaces. Building the house from affordable materials and construction methods will lower the value of houses and people will have to spend less money of their income on value of housing.

The Jenga house is balanced in these aspects, which creates a house that is in harmony
