Abstract

This paper reports the initial study on physical alterations made by homeowners. It was hypothesized that alterations of houses do not necessarily mean dissatisfaction on the part of the occupants. Rather it shows how people would want to make their home unique. The study employs “systematic observation” whereby a random sample of existing terraced houses was systematically analysed. Some of the findings suggest that people tend to make the appearance of their homes different. This challenges the validity of the present system of housing delivery process which seems to be ignorant of the personal expression of the individual buyer.
