An urban design manual for Africa. Town planning and design principles relevant to town planners, engineers and architects working in Africa today.
30 years ago, Zimbabwe's engineers and town planners revealed how the use of improved design techniques in low income housing estates could result in dramatic land and engineering cost savings, without loss of social amenity.
Better neighbourhoods + more houses for more people at less cost! A far-sighted solution to Africa's endemic housing problems.
This is a faithful reprint of the original 1981 Zimbabwe planning manual.
