- Description
- The overarching concept for this thesis is to identify means of architecturally assisting underdeveloped communities reach economic maturity by manipulating existing - or introducing new development methods that contribute to the economic development of a geographical area. In order to demonstrate this, a catalyst programme is identified, namely the Mini-bus transport interchange, which already exists within the township fabric in an underdeveloped state. The programme possesses the potential to fully realize architectural design potential, while introducing new ways of approaching developments in the township and ways of creating harmonious balance between man-made - and natural structures in a community which was systematically designed around rejected natural structures.
