AREA DIAGRAM - Client Groups Site Allocation

Client Groups Site Allocation

- The Group of 5 Friends are allocated the front as they are the most likely to be coming and going at late hours. The outdoor living is also placed on the second level as there is little requirement for a private grassed area.

- The Multi-Generational Family is pared with the Group of 5 Friends as they have similar sleep/public/private time use.

- The Retired Couple are pared with the Nuclear family as they have similar sleep/public/private time use. Due to their retirement, they are also likely to be home during the day and can interact and help support the young parents of the Nuclear Family.

The Nuclear Family is located at the back of the site due to having young kids. The further away from the street the safer they are. They also have the largest direct outdoor area as they require it the most for the children to play.

The Communal area runs down the south side of the site and acts as a threshold between the groups. Communal services such as laundry and toilets, as well as bike storage, garden tools and mailboxes allow groups to interact.
