Housing typology Arch 301 group A beril ozmen mayer
House, a type of residential building • People construct houses as dwelling-spaces for human habitation. Such dwellings generally feature enclosing walls and a roof to protect against precipitation, wind, heat, cold and intruders. • The house often provides a permanent residence for a family or for a similar social unit. • When occupying a house routinely as a dwelling, English-speaking people may call this building their "home". People may leave their house most of the day for work and recreation, but typically return 'home", to their house, at least for sleeping.
The two words "house" and "home" have distinctly different meanings and connotations. • "House" refers to the physical object, "home" has a more abstract and poetic connotation as the center of family life. • Enlisted men during World War II used the phrase "A house is not a home" — in part to justify infidelity during war-time. On the other hand, a stately home classifies as a house.
The household • is the basic unit of analysis in many microeconomic and government models. • The term refers to all individuals who live in the same dwelling. • Most economic models do not address whether the members of a household area family in the traditional sense. • Government and policy discussions often treat the terms household and family as synonymous, especially in western societies where the nuclear family has become the most common family structure. In reality, there is not always a one-to-one relationship between households and families.
a household is defined as • "one person or a group of people who have the accommodation as their only or main residence and for a group, either share at least one meal a day or share the living accommodation, that is, a living room or sitting room" • In feudal or aristocratic societies, a household may include servants or retainers, whether or not they are explicitly so named. Their roles may blur the line between a family member and an employee.
Types of Single houses • Bungalow Single story house • Colonial house: a traditional style house in the United States • Cottage: Usually refers to a small country dwelling, but weavers' cottages are three-storied townhouses with the top floor reserved for the working quarters. • Detached (free-standing): Any house that is completely separated from its neighbours. • Link-detached: Adjacent detached properties which do not have a party wall, but which are linked by the garage(s) and so forming a single frontage. • Ranch: Single story house, usually with garage and basement. • Manufactured home/ Prefabricatred, a house where the main structure is prefabricated (common after WWII). • Deck House, Custom-built post and beam homes using high-quality woods and masonry.

In New York, "Brownstones" are rowhouses. Rowhouses are typically multiple stories. The term townhouse is currently coming into wider use in the UK, but terraced house (not "terraced home") is more common. • Terraced house: Since the late 18th century is a style of housing where (generally) identical individual houses are conjoined into rows - a line of houses which abut directly on to each other built with shared party walls between dwellings whose uniform fronts and uniform height created an ensemble that was more stylish than a "rowhouse". However this is also the UK term for a "rowhouse" regardless of whether the houses are identical or not.
Back-to-back: Terraced houses which also adjoin a second terrace to the rear. They were a common form of housing for workers during the Industrial Revolution in England. • Treehouse A house that is built among the branches or around the trunk of one or more mature trees and does not rest on the ground. • Townhouse: also called rowhouse (US). In the UK, a townhouse is a traditional term for an upper class house in London (in contrast with country house), and is now coming into use as a term for new terraced houses, which are often three stories tall with a garage on the ground floor. • Shack: A small, usually rundown, wooden building. • Travel trailer (alternative to caravan in British English) • Vernacular houses: Houses constructed in a native manner; close to nature, using the materials locally available. As far as such houses are concerned; in India these gel with the communal structuring. • Villa

Tadao Ando’s 4 x 4 House • Memorial of the Kobe eathquake
, in Kobe, Japan- 2003 It stood as a tiny concrete tower that didn’t look or act like a house, bracketed between a busy street and the Inland Sea, didn’t even have another home nearby. Equally unorthodox, 4 x 4 was the product of a trendy magazine’s mail-in survey that had matched up the client, a concrete contractor, with the world-famous architect.
