Villages can be classified as a) Developed villages (Urban) &

b) Non-Developed Villages (Rural)

➢ Most of the rural settlements have already changed and

merged into urban areas with changed characteristics in

terms off pucca houses, pucca roads, availability of

infrastructure etc. Such changed villages called urban villages

while the others remained the rural villages.

➢ The concept of urban village emerged in Britan in the late

1980s with the establishment of Urban Village Group as a

viable approach to creating a successful and long-lasting

neighbourhood.

➢ It emerged as a way to alleviate the prominent failures in

urban planning that provide vitality and proximity to many of

the amenities necessary for everyday life.

➢ Since more than one decade, urban villages are becoming

slum pockets which has necessitated the development in terms

of laying of infrastructure, construction of roads and making

available public and semi public buildings and parks, etc.

A initial concept for west silver town Xian, an urban village in China

Urbanization in India

➢ Urbanization is due to large increase in population and

resulted in urban sprawls. Urbanization happens 2 ways

➢ Through expansion of existing urban bodies by

engulfing villages

➢ Through the independent transformation of rural

areas into urban areas.

➢ The growth of urban areas and engulfing of villages in the

city boundaries – urbanizing the villages that are more a

reality in Indian situations.

HYDERABAD METROPOLITAN REGION

➢ Urban villages are the old traditional settlements within the

urban limit of the city.

➢ Merging of urban area with a village, where the agricultural

land of the village is taken up for urban development.

➢ The term ‘Urban Village’ was first coined in 1961 at the

time of formulation of the Master Plan of Delhi.

FORMATION OF URBAN VILLAGE:

TRANSFORMATION OF RURAL VILLAGE TO

URBAN VILLAGE

Farmers own collectively/

Condensed center to maximize

farming

TRADITIONAL VILLAGE

Rapid urbanization encroaches /

Farm land disappears/ Density

Increases

TOUCHING URBANITY

City surrounds ‘Urban Village’/

Building heights rise/Exterior

boundaries are closed off

SWALLOWED BY

URBANITY

The Lal Dora – The Concept

➢ A line separating Abadi area i.e. habitable area and the

agricultural area in a rural village.

➢ Area within the Lal Dora in rural is exempted from

Municipal bye-laws or zoning regulations.

➢ Still confusion on the status of these villages after

urbanization.

➢ For capital gains, outsiders and landlords begin speculative

and illegal building, industrial or commercial operations.

RURAL & URBAN CLASSIFICATION

As per Census of India ‘Urban Units’ is as follows:

a. All places with a Municipality, corporation, Cantonment

Board or Notified Town Area Committee, etc.

b. Places with a minimum population of 5,000.

c. At least 75% of the male working population engaged in

non-agricultural activities.

d. A density of Population of at least 400 Person/Sq.km.

➢ Villages that satisfy the criteria given at (b) also treated as

urban and such villages are termed as ‘Urban Villages’.

URBAN VILLAGE:

➢ Urban villages include the native and traditional villages as

located and demarcated within town and city boundaries,

plus unplanned village-like settlements defined by terms like

informal and squatter settlements.

➢ Urban villages exist within all towns & cities, differing in

number, size, and intensity according to local, national, and

historical circumstances, including urbanization

APPLICATION:

Urban village ideals have been applied to new greenfield &

brownfield developments and urban renewal projects.

INFLUENCES & IMPETUS

➢ Urban villages a viable alternative to the social ills that

characterize modernism in cities, such as freeways and high-

rise estates.

➢ Urban villages are seen to create self-contained communities

that reduce the need to travel large distances and reduce the

subsequent reliance on automobile.

➢ Through more consolidated development, urban villages can

reduce the intrusion of urban growth on the country side.

➢ To provide a solution to the demise of community that is

often associated with modernism and sprawl.

LITERATUE STUDY

URBAN VILLAGE CLASSIFICATION:

Urban village(Villages in the City)’s can be classified in many

ways based on various criteria. Some of them have been given

under :

• Land use as given in Master Plan,

• Land use as existing on the site,

• Within urban limits of Hyderabad or outside,

• Urban or rural.

➢Fuel for Vehicles

➢Sufficient Water Supply

➢Shops for Primary needs

➢Small manufacturing

Units

➢Nationalized banks

➢Nearness of markets

➢Government offices

Fun‐xin village is a comparably small village surrounded by urban park and

other new developed residential apartment buildings in Shenzhen. It is

composed of 5 to 10 storied residential buildings in an extremely high density.

These routes are like the subway lines, and they are also

vertically connected with each other at certain spots.

➢ URBANUS’s design is to connect most of the existing

buildings with proportioned pedestrian route, making it

as an untied architecture complex rather than the

existing individual building, so that they can create an

active mixed use district.

➢ These routes include different programs, such as

entertainment line, garden line, commercial line, art line

and kid line, which traverse throughout each block at

different levels, connecting each public space within

each individual building.

Each pedestrian route includes three

parts:

• The public space intervention in

the existing buildings,

• The program within the existing

buildings,

• The new constructed connections

between the buildings.

which provides space for showrooms, designer

studios and art galleries.

Existing View and Main Issues

• Disconnection with the surroundings because of infra-city roads around

Lado Sarai

• Dense building activity in the village leading to problems of drainage and

sanitation

• Deficit of public utilities and social infrastructure

• DDA land adjoining the infra-city roads has uncertain status and has been

lying vacant for two decades

• Unofficial car parking on the open DDA land

URBAN DESIGN PROPOSAL
