Modern metropolises
A city is a maze of buildings, vehicles, and people, that is designed to be an intricate system. The socio-economic development is unhindered and more agglomerations of cities are coming into existence each day.
The immediate responsibility of the city is to shelter its people. For their living and convenience, various typologies of buildings are built around. Planning plays an important role in controlling the density and efficiency of cities.
Balancing a myriad of typologies and concerns is already a daunting task, moreover, the added pressure of demands rising exponentially over a short time has crippled the growth of many cities.
This haphazard situation is the result of faulty planning or its unintended effect on urban areas. It is ironic since planning is to be wielded as a tool to bring order to cities, but the poor execution can lead to a series of chaotic events.
Can you identify some of the issues in megacities due to inadequate planning?

Brief:
Design a modular pocket housing on an urban residual plot of land in a dense urban city.
The solution proposed must be modular and temporary since the land may be vacant for a limited time period. It must be built to provide living space to people on a rental basis, for short durations. The assembly and disassembly of the housing units must be efficient.
The concept for this space can be unconventional with innovation in form, layout, or interior elements. The design of the housing must be compact with maximum space utilization. The furniture must be modular with an ambiance of comfort and convenience of use.
The aim is to use the unusually oriented, leftover plots to create a cohesive design that can cater to the need of home in the city. Daylight and ventilation must be well-designed to make the spaces feel bigger and more open. It must be less resource-intensive and economical for easy maintenance.

Design Objectives
The design should aim at creating a new way of living. The design can completely disregard/challenge the way houses are made currently.

Modular: Temporary housing solution to bring vacant land into use.

Optimization: Optimum use of available carpet area.

Basics: Natural Light and Natural Ventilation

Contextuality: Anchorage to the chosen site in terms of climate etc. and culture.
