《 Residential area Planning Principles and Design Methods
The form of human habitation has gone through thousands of years. Since the emergence of the city, there has been urban housing. At first, it was mixed with other houses in the city, such as workshops, pubs, inns, shops, etc. When the city develops to a certain scale, and the free development of all kinds of houses increasingly exposes its obvious defects, the housing starts to gradually separate from the comprehensive urban buildings, and is built solely in a special area, resulting in a residential area. The residential area and its planning are developed with the development of the city and social productivity.
