3.3 Parameters to Study

There is a clear association between the layout of a dwelling and the ethnic culture or social class is part of. It is possible to "read" the layout of the dwellings and draw conclusions about social and cultural traits. The way a dwelling is organized in terms of rooms and connections between rooms are however not quite stable. It changes as society changes. Again, the kitchen is an interesting example. Some studies show how it in certain cultures has increased in size and moved from the back of the house to the front and mirroring the change in the role of women (As, 2016).

The architectural design of homes depends upon three factors which are physical, social, and psychological aspects of a home (Al-Tarazi, 2021).

1. The physical aspect of a house –

The physical aspect of the house is the building itself. The physical space in which the social and psychological aspects take place. This aspect is the focus of this research as there is potential to promote and influence the other two aspects. 2. The social aspects of a house –

The social aspect of the house can be identified as the household’s activity within the physical structure as well as the household interaction with others that happens inside or with the home.

3. The psychological aspect of a house -

The psychological aspect is the result of the social activity of the household occurring within the physical structure of the house. In terms of this research, the psychological aspect is the outcome that we are trying to influence and promote by improving the quality of the physical aspect.

3.3 Parameters to Study

This framework is consisting of major four factors on which the whole research will move further for the field study and help to form a questioner. These parameters are based on the literature review about the quality of life and study of the migrants and their issues facing in the urban cities.

The framework is divided into four major factors respectively physical, social, economic, and institutional factors in which it contains some subcategories for observational and interview studies. This framework will help to measure the quality of life amongst the migrant people and help to identify the core problem faced in living a basic life.

1. Physical factors

The physical factor will cover the facility of space used by migrants and the houses they lived in. To analyze this, it is divided into three major categories like housing behaviors, open spaces, and other facilities. Housing behaviors cover the survey of the household spaces of different functions, and about the family and their living style and condition. The 39
