| description | The rapid urbanization and population growth in Malaysia cause increased rural migrants and poverty in the city centre, particularly Kuala Lumpur. Therefore, the needs for affordable housing for the low-income group are crucial. However, low-income housing design is subject to guidelines and standards set by the Ministry of Housing that cause the housing unit to be fundamental and lack understanding towards the occupant’s lifestyle. Past studies have shown comparisons of spatial studies in various low-income housing layouts; however, none has identified the most integrated space utilized. Therefore, this paper investigates the value of spaces in Low-income housing in Kuala Lumpur. Using Space Syntax, this study identifies the most dominant space by looking at the integration of space. The finding of this study will determine the parameters in which improving the future Low-income housing design. This study found that entrance hall is the most dominant space followed with kitchen and living room. This paper will benefit policymakers, low-income house developers and consultants, researchers in the architecture field, and society. |
