General objectives
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.
Expansion means reconversion
By analysing the development of incremental housing projects, it comes natural to challenge the idea of expansion as a process of addition. It is rather a process of adding, reconverting and subtracting.
Infrastructure for expansion
Different projects are based on different principles of allowing expansion. Some of the projects allow a lot of freedom, while others define precisely from the beginning the size and the structural principles at the base of future expansions.
