Abstract
The quality of housing for the low-income group in Malaysia, especially in Kuala Lumpur, is crucial to improving. Low-income housing design subject to standards by the government has not been satisfactory to the inhabitants' comfort, social and cultural needs. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate the quality of space design of the low-income housing living unit by assessing the visibility of each of the spaces in the units using space syntax as an analytical tool. The study found that the low-income housing design has not considered the visual privacy of private spaces (bedrooms) to common spaces (living and dining area).
Keywords: Living Units, Low-income Housing, Space Visibility, Space Syntax.
