Pragmatic, practical, affordable, messy urbanism
Infill housing projects work with severe constraints. To make it affordable, design solutions are often messy, ugly but always pragmatic and practical.
Usually they increase density that reduces the land costs and at the same time intessify the use of land, an urban plus. Parking is a stringent requirement and a design challenge. Faced with a 12 or 14 foot wide bay, the options are limited.
The solution is simple, whether judged as ugly or beautiful, but always good urbanism.
