Incremental housing: development
Incremental housing, recently popularised by Aravena, is a concept that had been implemented in South America since the 1980s. Recent studies have attempted at understanding the characteristics of this semi-spontaneous growth. For instance the proximity to major roads means that expansion will be the fastest because of the possibility of opening a shop or of catering for a specific activity. Other positive aspects are the possibility of transforming and upgrading the houses when transitioning into middle class, rather than moving to a different neighbourhood. Some downsides are that future scenarios did not include enough parameters: f.i. the green areas have been transformed into parking lots when the increased wealth allowed the residents to buy cars.
