Abstract

This report is a response to the need for a flexible framework of design guidelines - a "design system" - for remote Indigenous housing. As such, the project will provide concepts and design principles to supplement the focus on safety, health, quality control and sustainability in the National Indigenous Housing Guide and related State and Territory guidelines, with principles for the design and modification of Indigenous housing that reflect the ways in which Indigenous people use their homes and which meet the cultural and social requirements of Indigenous communities in remote Australia.
