Space Organization in High-Rise Buildings (A Case Study of Kanti Towers, Victoria Island, Lagos State, Nigeria)
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 8
Abstract
Conventionally, High-rise buildings served as a revelation of the power and places of identity and civic pride. Contemporary high-rise buildings are on the increase due to the scarcity of land for development purpose owning to urban density as a result of rural-urban migration. However, Working or living in high-rise building tends to limit users functions to their subscribed floors and thus reduces propinquity. This brings about boringness, separation, loneliness. It encourages crime resulting from seclusion. After a thorough analysis of existing similar facility as a case study, it's discovered that spatial planning completely restricts occupancy of this building to their workstations.It is therefore important to encourage thorough circulation and places of common usage to increase propinquity. Attention must, therefore, be given to creating and reorganizing common spaces by an introduction of interpenetrating planes, communication floors to make them serve more than just public spaces through the arrangement of vertical spaces in three clusters.
