Worksite Housing

Worksite Housing for Construction Workers

SSF has initiated a program to create worksite housing for construction workers in Ahmedabad. Through Aajeevika Bureau’s network with developers, we have partnered with the Mount Group developers to design and install prototypes of worker housing at their construction site. The prototype has been designed with the involvement of students of architecture from the School of Environment and Architecture (SEA), Mumbai.

What we did

In close partnership with the developer, SEA Mumbai, Aajeevika Bureau and Co-Solve/SKF, SSF is currently implementing a prototype design solution for worksite housing. Facilities include:

  • two (2) housing units with provisions for natural light, ventilation and security
  • an integrated external plinth that includes seating and washing platforms
  • adequate alley-level drainage for grey water
  • a private and exclusive space for women near their toilet, called a ‘social tower’ with space for small activities and meeting
