| description | Since Algeria’s independence in 1962, Algerian towns have experienced strong
population growth at a rate of over 3.2% and a considerable rural exodus
causing a housing crisis. In order to quickly resolve this crisis, the state
adopted the policy of industrialization of housing. During this period,
social housing was the model best suited to the social, economic and
political situation of the country. Consequently, during the mass production
of social housing, a fundamental parameter was ignored: the quality of the
living environment in the outdoor spaces of these social neighbourhoods.
This has caused the emergence of multiple remarkable social behaviours. This
article discusses the impact of outdoor spaces in one of the most important
neighbourhoods of the city of M’sila with 500 collective social housing
units on the socio-spatial behaviour of different categories of
inhabitants. This research combined the techniques of direct observation,
interviewing and the social use approach of Gehl. The results of the study
will identify the impact of outdoor spaces on the behaviour of residents of
social housing to be able to remedy in future urban development and
architectural designs. |
