'n Toepassing van die woonbuurtbegrip in S.A

Abstract

The grouping of dwellings in units of certain size emerged strongly in the beginning of the 20th century only with the so-called garden scene and later with the new towns in Britain. Accordingly, the residential function is grouped in different neighborhoods, each of which should consist of smaller units. The basic idea behind this was to try to restore the human scale back into the urban environment.
