Nicole Haumont : Housing and cultural patterns.
The study of the needs and aspirations of the French population relating to housing shows how strong the attachment is to the individual dwelling ; this is true, even for the inhabitants of large housing units, who consider themselves well housed. This situation is without doubt due to the fact that the satisfaction derived from good housing conditions, does not always coincide with the realization of more general aspirations which are characteristic of French society. These aspirations express the great influence of cultural patterns ruling the way in which the child, and later the adult, learns about his home area. This learning process permits adjustments which later will be easier if these adaptations respond to fundamental needs. This is in general, the case of the individual dwelling and it partially explains, the greater attachment expressed in France for this type of dwelling. ? These patterns, however, are but a framework within which numerous variations are observed, according to social groups. This possibility of variation becomes evident when important changes come about with the process of urbanization in a given country. The role of the architect and the town planner is to adapt the dwelling to the transformation in the way of life ; the cultural patterns of the society in question, should also be considered.
