Project
AP206.S1.1982.PR05
Description:
This project series documents LIG (low income group) housing in Sector 52 in Chandigarh from around the 1980s or 1990s. This project consisted of the design of typical three-storey housing clusters for the Chandigarh Housing Board. The typical design had four housing wings attached by a central, common courtyard. Balconies and courtyards on the building's exterior were arranged in an alternating pattern to give every resident a view of the sky. The project is recorded through floor plans, elevations, sections and a perspective, likely dating from sometime in the 1980s or 1990s.
