The project objective was to develop and construct a housing accommodation at a cost of $8000 per individual dwelling unit in a hot-arid climatic zone characterized by: summer high temperatures of 105F. and a diurnal range of 30F.; winter high temperatures of 60F. and a similar diurnal range. The summers are very dry with clear skys, while the winters are humid and the skys frequently overcast. Three different prototypical dwelling units were designed and constructed in Fresno, California, September 1965, with a central objective to achieve a high degree of comfort without the use of mechanical cooling devices. The demonstration area is essentially inhabited by Negro-American agricultural workers permanently based who have been in the area for several years. They share a low educational and income level, with family incomes averaging $2500 per annum. An image evaluation was developed for measuring public acceptance of the proposed units. The method employed used a 'semantic differential,' which uses polar opposite adjectives to obtain connotative implications of an object. The sample groups were farm workers, bankers and architects. It appeared that the proposed units were well accepted by each of the groups; however, the survey relied on drawings and photographs of models, which are often seductive and misleading. (Author)
