Abstract
It is the intent of this thesis to investigate an alternative strategy for design and implementation of low cost housing in South Africa. For this purpose a site is chosen and a design strategy is formulated. The core concept in this strategy is the combination of site and services approach and supports methodology. Although site specific, this strategy is proposed and discussed in a way to have general and wider implications both in South African context and also other third world countries. Finally, a series of issues are raised on implementation implications of such strategy.
