'Low-rise, high density, two-storey construction to house the families of an environmental disaster. Organized as clusters of 20 units around a central courtyard, it reflects the family structure, lifestyle, and social structure of the residents. ' Aga Khan archive. NOT QUITE BIG ENOUGH TO BE A NEW TOWN BUT BEAUTIFUL BUILDINGS AND A STRANGE NAME.
