Generally, housing is studied and researched from various stand points in the domain of built environment. Enabling strategies and options for less privileged communities, options in cost reduction, upgradation and adaptive re-use, mass and social housing ventures, self built initiatives and many a spread out approaches are covered in this broad realm. Due to the primary importance that is assigned to housing in respect to development, the demand of knowledge driven solutions has remained paramount. The theme architecture of housing has attempted to interlace the various dimensions that add value to the discourse in this direction. The paper by Morten Gjerde evaluates the design capabilities of concerned practices pertinent to infill housing in New Zealand. The study examines the key urban design and architectural amenity issues through a well laid down analytical yardstick, findings of which have been logically extrapolated. The results unpinned the need of shoring up the capabilities of design professionals as the complexities related to housing are several and increasing. A lucid review has been done by Mahbubur Rahman in his critical assessment of low income housing in the developing countries. Cardinal developments in policy and practice have been dwelled upon in this discourse. It shall be useful if researchers extrapolate the various arguments highlighted in this paper through empirical research in identified contexts, particularly in the developing countries. An impressive bibliography is also included in the paper. Jon Calame has delved deep into the social and physical labyrinths that remain at the baseline of ghetto formation in Rome. Issues concerning minimum applicable standards, ethnic profiles and preferences are dealt in sufficient detail in the paper. An important recommendation is the identification of need for exclusive byelaws, standards and regulations for this type of shelter format. Predicaments of ordinary shelter along the banks of Padma river in Bangladesh are highlighted by Amreen Shahjahan. The study covers the matters related to thermal comfort and vulnerabilities in the wake of recurring natural hazards. Housing profile and intervention are comparatively studied by Mukhtar Mai and Mahbubur Rahman in connection with Dhaka and Abuja (in Nigeria). With the help of case examples, the paper illustrates the social and physical evolution of respective urban contexts and spatial transformations. The characteristics of old traditional dwellings namely havelis by Samra Khan in her paper is a useful addition to knowledge on the subject. The study points out many useful attributes of natural ventilation that have been embedded in dwellings of similar typology. Whereas swift urbanization and demand for new uses is causing enormous pressure on older and traditional housing, the apparent merits that are included in this valuable artifact deserve to be preserved through a logical approach. Trend of gated communities in Pakistani urban centres particularly Karachi are rising. The paper by Asiya Sadiq et.al. has tracked down the core reasons behind this model of housing. The study critically examines the trend of gated communities with an objective to formulate recommendations for qualitative improvement. The comprehensive work on density by Arif Hasan et. al. proves that medium to high density standards have been achieved through incremental development upon small plots (80 100 m2). The paper recommends that the planners and policy makers should be sensitized to this key matter. It is also established that if appropriate density standards are maintained, the cost and provision of infrastructure can be greatly rationalized. This volume has attempted to delineate some of the vital areas of research and application in architecture for housing and its allied outreaches. It is hoped that this modest volume on the topic shall be of use to scholars, researchers and practitioners for its knowledge content and diverse perspectives.

How did the Indians resist, react, or adapt to the modernity introduced by the British? How did the British respond to their Indian context? Did the colonisers transplant western ideology and institutions without experiencing an exchange of ideas and practices in return? To deal with these questions, the study focuses on the architectural developments in Karachi during the British Raj (1858‐1947) and investigates how the reforms introduced by the Raj transformed and modernised the society and its architecture, particularly the colonial domestic architecture.

It examines users’ expectancy of services and their level of satisfaction, thus, influences overall performance evaluation of a shopping mall. This research paper also explores emergence of shopping malls in Karachi and a concise account of identifying challenges and exploring opportunities. The research methodology employs qualitative mode of research design for data collection through multiple methods such as on-site investigation by observations, and acquiring user perception by questionnaires and interviews. The data analysis comprises of calculation of customer satisfaction index (CSI) and SPSS statistics tests. Firstly, an overall trend in performance was evaluated. Secondly, it was found if there is statistically significant difference in performance between 5 selected shopping malls of Karachi based on incorporation of design considerations and attributes of a) location and accessibility b) parking and circulation c) site planning and landscape d) design features and services. A proposal of recommendations, as guiding ethos, to minimize impacts of identified challenges in malls of Pakistan concludes this paper.

ABSTRACT This thesis attempts to deal with some of the major issues relating to Pakistani architecture today as well as the consequent development of an architectural identity. In order to establish the framework for the study various discourses that reflect on the notion of identity have been examined. Due to the lack of an indigenous architectural discourse, and the consequent absence of critically rigorous information on the subject, this work is devoted to augmenting the very limited material available on the state of the architectural profession in Pakistan and to increasing an awareness of the directions that this architecture is presently taking.

  • Architecture and History in Pakistan
    Building, Dwelling, Dying: Architecture and History in Pakistan Chris Moffat, [email protected] School of History, Queen Mary University of London Published in Modern Intellectual History (2020) Abstract There is a long history of scholars finding in architecture tools for thinking, whether this is the relationship between nature and culture in Simmel’s ruins, industrial capitalism in Benjamin’s Parisian arcades, or the rhythms of the primordial in Heidegger’s Black Forest farmhouse. But what does it mean to take seriously the concepts and dispositions articulated by architects themselves? How might processes of designing and making constitute particular forms of thinking? This article considers the words and buildings of Lahore-based architect Kamil Khan Mumtaz (b.1939) as an entry-point to such questions. It outlines how professional architecture in Pakistan has grappled with the unsettled status of the past in a country forged out of two partitions (1947 and 1971). Mumtaz’s work and thought – engaging questions of tradition, authority, craft and the sacred – demonstrates how these predicaments have been productive for conceptualising time, labour and the nature of dwelling in a postcolonial world. MOFFAT | BUILDING, DWELLING, DYING 2 I. Architecture and History Pakistan as place and idea poses some provocative problems for the philosophy and anthropology of history. Established in 1947 less than a decade after its emergence as a political goal, the sovereign state of Pakistan represented a rupture in South Asian history. Premised on separatist claims to ‘nationality’ status, it was also a break from historical forms of Muslim political thought and identity in the region, which had in the early twentieth century gravitated toward ideas of imperial pluralism, elite stewardship or the possibility of minority status within a broader community.1 The postcolonial polity carved out of colonial India would fracture again in 1971, when a mass movement in the country’s eastern wing fought an independence war to establish Bangladesh.
