Applicability of Perry’s neighbourhood concept in neighbourhood planning in Sri Lanka
Perry’s neighbourhood concept has been considered a substantial paradigm shift in neighbourhood planning since 1929 and has now been reaffirmed under new urbanism. Eventhough Sri Lanka has implemented several neighbourhood concepts in housing developments, it lacks proper evaluation. The current study explores the applicability of Perry’s neighbourhood concept in Sri Lanka, employing two case studies in suburban areas in the Colombo district. The…
Craft industries and ribbon development
Craft industries are an increasingly significant component of economic and social life in many Asian countries. However, their unique forms are not well documented. Future development may be harmed by importing concepts from western creative industries, which exhibit different histories and spatial dynamics. Unlike western urban craft industries, South and East Asian craft industries assume a distinct morphological pattern of ‘craft ribbon develo…
An investigation on community spaces in condominiums and their impact on social interactions among apartment dwellers concerning the city of Colombo
Although there is an extensive understanding of the planning and design concerns associated with community spaces in public places, there is still much to be explored on what makes community spaces succeed or fail concerning the level of interactions in high rise apartments. Lessons from high profile failures and successful facts should inform planners on how to improve the plan, based on whether shared facilities are included or not and how many…

This article explores South Sudanese migrants’ experience in conceptualising their sense of belonging in Castlemaine, Victoria. Using focus group discussions…

The success of these programmes depends not only on attracting skilled migrants to regional areas, but also on retaining them within the regions into the longer term. This article argues that residential satisfaction, and specifically economic opportunity, is important in retai…
