4. Positive Outdoor Space
Make all the outdoor spaces which surround and lie between your buildings
positive. Give each one some degree of enclosure; surround each space with
wings of buildings, trees, hedges, fences, arcades, and trellised walks, until it
becomes an entity with a positive quality and does not spill out indefinitely
aroundcorners.

Light on two sides of
every Room
Locate each room so that it has outdoor space outside it on at
least two sides, and then place windows in these outdoor walls so
that natural light falls into every room from more than one
direction.
5. Connected Buildings
Connect your building up, wherever possible, to the existing
buildings round about. Do not keep set backs between buildings;
instead, try to form new buildings as continuations of the older
buildings.
DESIGN PATTERNS archihaus R E D Studio
SIS
Courtyards which Live
Place every courtyard in such a way that there is a view out of it to some larger
open space; place it so that at least two or three doors open from the building
into it and so that natural paths which connect these doors pass across the
courtyard. And, at one edge, beside a door, make a roofed veranda or a porch,
whichiscontinuouswithboththeinsideandthecourtyard.
6. Reception Welcomes You
Arrange a series of welcoming things immediately inside the
entrance- soft chairs, a fireplace, food, coffee. Place the
reception desk so that it is not between the receptionist and the
welcoming area, but to one side at an angle- so that she, or he,
can get up and walk toward the people who come in, greet
them,andtheninvitethemtositdown,

Things from Your Life
Do not be tricked into believing that modern decor
must be slick or psychedelic, or natural or modern art,
or plants or anything else that current taste makers
claim. it is most beautiful when it comes straight from
yourlife-thethingsyoucarefor,thethingsthattellyour
story.
7. Small Work Groups
Break institutions into small, spatially
identifiable workgroups, with less than half a
dozen people in each. Arrange these work
groups so that each person is in at least
partial view of the other members of his
group; and arrange several groups in such a
way that they share a common entrance,
food, office equipment, drinking fountains,
bathrooms.

that it takes on the feeling of a room, even though it is open
to the sky. To do this, define it at the corners with columns,
perhaps roof it partially with a trellis or a sliding canvas roof,
and create "walls" around it, with fences, sitting walls,
screens,hedges,ortheexteriorwallsofthebuildingitself.

8. Adventure Playground
Set up a playground for the children in each
neighbourhood. Not a highly finished
playground, with asphalt and swings, but a
place with raw materials of all kinds- nets,
boxes, barrels, trees, ropes, simple tools,
frames, grass, and water- where children can
create and re-create playgrounds of their
own.
DESIGN PATTERNS archihaus R E D Studio
SIS
Trellised Walk
Where paths need special protection or where they need some
intimacy, build a trellis over the path and plant it with climbing
flowers. use the trellis to help shape the outdoor spaces on either
sideofit.
9. Four-Story Limit
In any urban area, no matter how dense, keep the majority of buildings for stories
high or less. It is possible that certain buildings should exceed this limit, but they
shouldneverbebuildings forhumanhabitation.
DESIGN PATTERNS archihaus R E D Studio
SIS
Staircase as a Stage
Place the main stair in a key position, central and visible. treat the
whole staircase as a room (or if it is outside, as a courtyard). Arrange
it so that the stair and the room are one, with the stair coming down
around one or two walls of the walls of the room. Flare out the
bottom of the stair with open windows or balustrades and with wide
steps so that the people coming down the stair become part of the
action in the room while they are on the stair, and so that people
below will naturally use the stair for seats.
10. Stair Seats
In any public place where people
loiter, add a few steps at the edge
where stairs come down or where
there is a change of level. Make these
raised areas immediately accessible
from below, so that people may
congregate and sit to watch the
goings-on.
DESIGN PATTERNS archihaus R E D Studio
SIS
Access to Water
When natural bodies of water occur near human settlements, treat them with great
respect. Always preserve a belt of common land, immediately beside the water. And
allow dense settlements to come right down to the water only at infrequent intervals
alongthewatersedge.
11. 12 % Parking
Do not allow more that 12% of the land in any
given area to be used for parking. In order to
prevent the bunching of parking in huge
neglected areas, it is necessary for a town or a
community to subdivide its land into parking
zones no larger than 10 acres each and to
applythesameruleineachzone.

Small Parking Lots
Make parking lots small, serving no more than
five to seven cars, each lot surrounded by
gardenwalls,hedges,fences,slopes,andtrees,
so that from outside the cars are almost
invisible.Spacethesesmalllotssothattheyare
atleast100feetapart.
12. Green Streets
On local roads, closed to through traffic, plant grass all over
the road and set occasional paving stones into the grass to
form a surface for the wheels of those cars that need access
to the street. Make no distinction between street and
sidewalk. Where houses open off the street, put in more
pavingstonesorgraveltoletcarsturnontotheirownland.
DESIGN PATTERNS archihaus R E D Studio
SIS
Paving with Cracks between the Stones
On paths and terraces, lay paving stones with a 1
inch crack between the stones, so that grass and
mosses and small flowers can grow between the
stones. Lay the stones directly into earth, not into
mortar, and of course, use no cement or mortar in
betweenthestones.
13. Path Shape
Make a bulge in the middle of a public path,
and make the ends narrower, so that the
path forms an enclosure which is a place to
stay,notjustaplacetopassthrough.
DESIGN PATTERNS archihaus R E D Studio
SIS
Child Caves
Whereverchildren play,around the house, in the
neighbourhood, in schools, make small "caves"
for them. tuck these caves away in natural left
over spaces, under stairs, under kitchen
counters. Keep the ceiling heights low- 2 feet 6
inchesto4feet-andtheentrancetiny.
14. Low Sill
When determining exact locations of windows also decide which windows
should have low sills. On the first floor, make the sills of windows which you
plan to sit by between 12 and 14 inches high. On the upper stories, make them
higher,around20inches.
DESIGN PATTERNS archihaus R E D Studio
SIS
Deep Reveals
Make the window frame a deep, splayed edge: about a foot wide
and played at about 50 to 60 degrees to the place of the window,
so that the gentle gradient of daylight gives a smooth transition
betweenthelightofthewindowandthedarkoftheinnerwall.
15. Front Door Bench
Build a special bench outside the front door where people
from inside can sit comfortably for hours on end and watch
the world go by. Place the bench to define a half-private
domaininfrontofthehouse.Alowwall,planting,atree,can

Warm Colours
Choose surface colours which, together with
the colour of the natural light, reflected light,
and artificial lights, create a warm light in the
rooms.
