In-between the contrasting shades of black and white Johannesburg, we find Fleurhof. Fleurhof is defined by diversity, characterized by the contrasting identities that make up this suburb. The stark juxtaposition between rich and poor is typical of the nature of South African suburbs due to their spatial legacies1. What makes Fleurhof’s location unique is the recent application of an Integrated Housing Model2, the largest integrated housing development in Gauteng. Fleurhof’s relevance as a laboratory for the author’s dissertation stems from its distinguishing nature as a heterogeneous mixture of diverse territories. Residents from diverse backgrounds, contrasting financial situations and conflicting beliefs find themselves struggling to share this place they all call home. Through observation and contextual mapping, one can argue that Fleurhof’s residential and industrial stagnant urban fabric has failed to represent these diverse identities. The non-existence of governmental social infrastructure and municipal presence contributes to a lack of a resolution. This dissertation views the conflict amongst the diverse residents as a ‘breach in relationships’, and justice as a process of coming together to repair that breach. Furthermore, it investigates developing a ‘sense of resolution’ for Fleurhof by changing perceptions and establishing common ground among the residents. This dissertation will provide a new typology for conflict resolution as the driver and programme to function as the vehicle to define ‘common ground’. mi2025 Architecture MArch (Prof) Unrestricted SDG-10: Reduced inequalities SDG-11: Sustainable cities and communities SDG-16: Peace, justice and strong institutions 2019-01-25T07:18:26Z 2019-01-25T07:18:26Z 2019-04 2019 Mini Dissertation De Abreu, N 2019, A Sense of Resolution, MArch (Prof) Mini Dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/68275> A2019 http://hdl.handle.net/2263/68275 en © 2018 University of Pretoria.
