Informalities are my specialty

 Informal architecture is increasingly being recognized as a valuable source of inspiration for formal design and planning practices in today's world. In many parts of the world, informal settlements and self-built structures have emerged as a response to urbanization, migration, and economic challenges, providing affordable housing and meeting the needs of local communities.

 Designers, planners, and policymakers are now looking to these informal practices for ideas and solutions that can inform more sustainable and equitable approaches to urban development. This includes a focus on community engagement, use of local materials, and consideration of the social, cultural, and environmental contexts of specific places. 

 By learning from informal architecture and incorporating its principles into formal practices, we can create more responsive, resilient, and inclusive built environments for all.
