ABSTRACT
Sustainability and housing development holds a very quality relationship by taking care of various aspects
such as, economy, environment, social communities, residential development, etc. This paper aims to study
the above-mentioned aspects in order to achieve a sustainable development. On the other hand, the paper
will also enlighten the role of planning systems and infrastructural services to come up with some major
issues in housing development in a sustainable manner. The research also focuses on numerous
technologies which can be used as sustainability principles which can be applied for the generalization and
designing of structures and further can guide for the development of sustainable housing.

1. INTRODUCTION
Sustainable housing, is generally used to describe the pattern as it applicable to the housing industry. it used
to create, less waste, more re-use and recycling, together with lower life-cycle environmental impacts and
costs, better reliability, less maintenance, and greater user satisfaction.
The process of sustainable and economic development is unquestionable accelerated by urbanization into
housing industry.
housing is the most improving sector in the world with maximum number of design solutions and emerging
technology with innovation changing the quality of accommodation of resident.
Every one need a space for living and Housing is more than four walls and a roof, it also includes access to
basic facilities and amenities including water and sanitation, with providing a sense of privacy, protection,
dignity, and a better standard of living. (Ibrahim, 2020)
In the development of sustainable housing the concept of sustainable development in the field of
architecture is important and known as sustainable architecture, which is eco friendly and make a better life
for developing humanity. the basic goal of sustainable development is to deal with economic, social, and
environmental issues.
The sustainable development as the concept in architecture has applied through a very simple context as the
technologies used must minimizing the negative impact of building on environment. (Susanti Muvana
Nainggolan, 2020)
Technologies in are very help full to make something more valuable for making sustainable spaces.
Housing is a living space refer to architecture and construction field, but from starting to end technology
play a wide role.
Sustainable architecture in the housing development helps to decrease the use of nonrenewable resources on
site which helps the environment and health of peoples. Technical dimension into this largely prevail the
agenda of social and cultural dimensions. (Hagbert, 2015).
Sustainable housing depend upon the climatic situations consider with parameters belongs to different
climatic zones. The technologies are used in the sustainable housings are belongs to green building

standards which are environment friendly and work for the materials, energy , water & waste. (Gibberd,
2020).
There are various housing build in all over word because population growing very fast in the world and
demand of living spaces also growing simultaneously. but the major concern is to protect environment and
human health. In comparison to all housing projects there are very less sustainable housing present in all
over.

2. LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1 HOUSING: A DEFINITION

Housing’s basic aim is to protect population from harmful natural and social environment. It contains basic
and non-basic functions which serves for household object an d personal belongings .
These functions are inextricable part of any cultural housing.
Housing has been provided a wide meaning by world health organization (WHO), which recognize that it
covers four interrelated aspects. The structure used , or planned to be use , for human habitation is referred
to as a house or dwelling and the group of houses where large population exist in a planned houses society is
housing. (O. Golubchikov, 2012).

2.1CURRENT HOUSING SCENARIO

Housing development are under a lot strain as a result of rapid urbanization. By 2030, approx 3 billion
people, or 40 % of world total population will need sufficient housing and access to basic infrastructure and
services such as water, energy and sanitation.
From now till 2030 this equates to the need to build 96, 150 housing unit every day on serviced and
registered property.
In developing world bad governance and lack of human resources limit the availability of sustainable
housings. (Sminkey, 2016)

2.2 SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

The Brundtland commission report(1987) setup in an
triangulated concept of sustainability, which include
economic , environmental and social factors , with
sustainable development in center (fig 1).cultural
sustainability also called social sustainability, should be
culturally week and built on an establish healthy and safe
architecture.
Economic sustainability consider low cost overtime while
enironment sustainability consider energy resources , waste
and water quality.(Stefansson, 2016)

In this report , sustainable development is also describe as Figure 1 The triangulated definition of Sustainable

lengthy spam of life of home as physical structure they have
effect on current and up coming generation , making
housing a essential part of sustainable growth.(Goedknegt, 2012)

2.3 SOCIAL SUSTAINABLE HOUSING

Housing has an effect on peoples daily life , as well as their safety, health and well being .
The social-environmental relationship includes it as well.Despite the fact that the process of building homes
requires the use of several natural resources, produces waste, and pollutes the air and water, the building
itself is frequently influenced by the climate.
Providing secure, healthy, inclusive, and diversified homes, communities, and communities that are well-
integrated into the larger socio-spatial systems of which housing is a part—both urban and national—is
what social sustainability in housing is all about. The relationship between human requirements and social
sustainability is illustrated in the same book's theoretical discussion of the social sustainability of
housing.(Stefansson, 2016)

2.4 CHANGING DYNAMICS FOR SUSTAINABLE HOUSING

The effects of population ageing, migration, habit changes, and climate change on architecture and planning
are all significant. Having well-designed, reasonably priced housing has social benefits in addition to
technological ones. After all, housing is about people. Focusing on preventative measures is the best option
to deal with the ageing population from a housing aspect. The majority of older individuals choose to afford
housing, which is something that should be supported.(forum, 2010)

2.4.1 DEMOGRAPHIC CHANGES

Families, family lives, and households have all undergone significant transformation in recent decades. As a
result of demographic changes, numerous new types of households have been created. In addition to
"typical" nuclear families, there are also a growing number of single-person households, married or
unmarried couple households, single-parent families with children, separated parents who invite their
children over for the weekend, and so forth. The trend toward smaller households is anticipated to continue
in the future as a result of population ageing.(forum, 2010)

2.4.2 ECONOMIC CHANGES

The globalization process has an impact on how we live. Due to the increased mobility of firms, the labor
market has grown increasingly globalised. Nowadays, fewer people remain in the same house,
neighborhood, or even nation for their whole lives.

Therefore, there is a demand for adaptable housing. In addition, a pattern called "glocalization" has been
seen. People are beginning to think globally but act locally as they become more regionally focused. The
housing requirements of today show this pattern. The design of a person's home should correspond to their
neighborhood's aesthetic.(forum, 2010)

2.4.3 SOCIAL CULTURE CHANGES

Identity and lifestyle are becoming more and more important, especially in marketing. People have many
options today, the information society is advancing, and regional disparities in housing demand are growing.
These changes unmistakably affect homes and our way of life.

3. TECHNOLOGIES
Sustainability principles that apply to the generalization, design, and use of structures should guide the
development of housing. The method aims to improve user experience, decrease impacts on natural
resources, and reduce environmental costs brought on by insufficient proactive processes and
solutions.(Olotuah, 2010)(Ramandeep Sharma, 2017)

3.1. RENEWABLE ENERGY RESOURCES

Solar energy is the best usable source of energy in future .Photovoltaic (PV) or solar panel
mounted on the rooftops of residences and commercial buildings as well as solar collectors
that can switch and follow the sun during the day, like mirrors or parabolic dishes, are used
to generate solar energy. Buildings with this system have focused lighting.(Ramandeep
Sharma, 2017)
Solar PV systems can generate power from either direct or indirect sunlight, but it is
essential that they are exposed to enough of it. In order to fully absorb the sun's energy, solar
panels should be oriented towards the south. The device needs to be put in a spot where it
won't be blocked by nearby trees or buildings.(Ramandeep Sharma, 2017)

3.2. DECENTRALIZED WASTE WATER TREATMENT SYSTEM(DEWAT)

DEWATS – a brief insight into technical configuration
In typical debates, the next technical treatment step is combined in a modular fashion.
 Primary treatment- space in sedimentation ponds, shelters, septic tank or bio digesters.

 Secondary treatment - in anaerobic the felt reactor, and aerobic filters or an aerobic and facultative
pond system.
 Secondary Aerobic/Facultative Treatment -in horizontal gravel filters.
 Post-treatment – in aerobic polishing ponds.

India's leading proponent of decentralized waste water treatment systems is Vigyan Vijay Foundation
(VVF). Based on their expertise, standard models of debate plans are a device to quickly plan debate plants
for different levels of housing. With the help of the Central for Rural Development and Technology (CRDT)
and IIT Delhi, VVF has successfully executed over 14 debate plants in North India.(Ramesh Sakthivel,
2012)

3.3 URBAN FARMING IN BUILDINGS

In addition to serving as a way of growing food, urban farming contributes to the greening of buildings,
which offers natural cooling, shading, and a comfortable environment for the occupants. Finding diverse
architectural components that can be used for plant cultivation is the focus of urban farming design
decisions. It should be emphasized that vertical building facades can be used for the aforementioned
purpose, meaning that horizontal area may not even be employed for urban farming. Urban farms built into
vertical structures typically comprise cultivation on the roof, wall, and balcony.(Suparwoko, 2017)

3.3.1 VERTICAL FARMING

The practice of cultivating in vertically stacked layers, inclined soils, or other structures is known as vertical
farming. Indoor farming methods and controlled vertical farming concepts are utilised in current times so
that many environmental variables can be managed when producing crops, primarily leafy greens. (Al-
Kodmany, 2018)

These facilities make use of fustigation, internal climate control, and artificial lighting systems. In some
vertical farms, artificial lighting and metal reflectors are used in place of natural sunlight in a manner akin to
greenhouse techniques. These farms are frequently referred to as hydroponic in the business sector since
they don't use soil as the substrate for the plants and instead rely exclusively on water and a floating material
like polystyrene or husk as the medium of planting.(Al-Kodmany, 2018)

3.4 WATER HARVESTING SYSTEM

The technique of gathering rainwater that naturally falls from the sky and using it as a replacement for
potable water is known as rainwater harvesting. Rainwater is typically collected in a tank in the basement
(or underground), and it is then pumped to a tank at a higher level so that gravity can work in its favor.
When pure drinking water is not necessary, rainwater can be used for a variety of uses in homes and larger
buildings. This includes running mechanical heating and cooling systems that require water, flushing toilets,
washing laundry, and other exterior uses like cleaning.

4. CONCLUSION
Four "key objectives" listed in the national strategy must all be met simultaneously:
a) Effective environmental protection

b) Upkeep of strong and constant rates of economic development and employment

c) Social advancement that takes everyone's demands into account; and

d) Prudent use of the environment's resources (2005, Nicholas et al).

Planning authorities need to make sure that their development plans address sustainable development in an
integrated manner. They should pay close attention to how social inclusion, environmental preservation and
improvement, responsible resource use, and economic development are interconnected. Housing
development with sustainable and smart designs is a good practice, according to the Smart and Sustainable
Dwellings (2008) in planning, designing, building, renovating, and maintaining homes. This enables them to
sustain society, the environment, and the economy.
The goals of the development's designs are determined by the public's desire for housing. These demonstrate
the requirements of the populace as well as their suggestions for improving housing longevity, cutting costs,
and minimizing negative social and environmental effects. To maintain a steady supply, the private sector
aims to do this. Additionally, this sets an example for residential house designs and the building industry.
These elements, such as the occupant's freedom of mobility, safety and security, affordability, and minimal
use of resources like water and electricity, should be considered while designing a sustainable dwelling.
This location can then accommodate the family's demands and is regarded as smart housing for all stages of
a person's life, by keeping the factors for sustainability involve.
