Abstract

Social housing is one concept which has been introduced as a way to cope with problems of informal settlements. The presence of informal settlements with its dirty-chaotic image often seen as a problem that ruins the image of a city. Relocating people in informal settlements to social housing is hoped to help the government to improve quality of the environment as well as to provide a decent living place for the poor. Unfortunately, the utilization of social housings often causes new problems to the city. The poor façade design of the social housing complex worsened by the living habit of the occupants made the social housing looks dirty and untidy. Again, this condition will give bad impact to the image of the environment surrounding. The social housing complex of Penjaringan Sari Surabaya was selected as the case study to map the common visual quality problems that occured. Case studies of several buildings with the similar problem were also conducted to obtain precedents that can be implemented as a solution
