Planning for Informal architecture?

When it comes to the planning of informal architecture, I believe that there is no clear-cut answer. Through history, it has primarily arisen organically due to a lack of regulations and the needs of the people. However, I also believe that as architects, we have the ability to design spaces that can accommodate and encourage the development of informal architecture.

By creating flexible frameworks and open-ended spaces, we can provide the opportunity for people to adapt and modify their environment based on their evolving needs. I think this approach can lead to more inclusive and functional spaces that can better serve the community. While it is important to consider the regulations and restrictions in place, I think it is equally crucial to consider the needs and desires of the people who will use these spaces. As architects, we should strive to design spaces that can accommodate both formal and informal architecture, ultimately creating a more vibrant and dynamic urban environment.

  1. I see your point here and have to agree that our role as the architect can help serve to 'set the stage' for these types of informal architecture exist. But, part of me feels like this is wrong. The fascination and success of the informal architecture is in the aspec that there is no formal planning to it. I think if you tamper with that aspect, you threaten the gesture.
