Sustainable low cost Housing Development in Marsabit County

 

The housing project is composed by the site planning for the 100 housing units, the site planning for the 5 housing pilot projects and the definition of the housing prototypes of 1 to 4 bedrooms. The project will initially develop 5 pilot units of different sizes (1 to 4 bedrooms) in 10×25 meter plots to accommodate the different needs of different families. Four of them will be one floor units with one to three bedrooms, living room, washroom, separated latrine with water tap, kitchen, courtyard, back garden and front garden. An additional housing unit has been developed in two floors with additional rooms in the upper floor. The distribution of the rooms and the housing design has been designed to facilitate the construction of additional rooms as the families grow and their needs change. The structure and housing plan has been designed to allow the construction of two floors up for either additional rooms or additional housing units in the future. Another model of incremental housing of 1 to 4 bedrooms has been designed on bigger plots of 15×25 meters.
