Visual Privacy Factors Influencing Usage of Spaces for Urban Housing
Аннотация
Contemporary terrace housing in Malaysia reflects colonial and Western influences, often misaligning with the spatial needs of modern Malay Muslim families. This study examines how visual privacy impacts space usage and housing satisfaction in urban terrace homes. Misaligned semi-outdoor spaces to occupant’s values may lead to underused core areas. A survey of 435 respondents, 10 case studies, statistical analyses, and space syntax methods reveal that visual privacy significantly influences satisfaction. The findings highlight the need for culturally sensitive design innovations, particularly at the home's perimeter, to enhance usability and satisfaction for modern Malay families in Malaysia.
