ABSTRACT Much of the debate in contemporary urban studies has surrounded the provision of affordable housing in capital and regional cities. Master planned estates (MPEs) have emerged as the dominant form of housing in Australia. Master planned estates often include private governance mechanisms to regulate resident behaviour and building designs, improving the sales potential and creating an enhanced living environment for residents. Using case studies of three MPEs this paper explores aspects of the building design codes (BDCs), including their rationale, contribution to initial engagement and resident experiences. It finds that while the BDCs are perceived as integral to improving estate sales and the long-term operation, the developer’s commitment declines over time. The BDCs help to attract new residents by creating predictability. The estate residents are largely supportive of the BDCs and some feel abandoned when the developer’s commitment declines. The results are interpreted through a commodity perspective, which considers how the moments of production, exchange and consumption are inflected through culturally derived notions of home and home-making processes.

总体规划地产的有争议的地理区域：建筑设计规范的作用

摘要当代城市研究中的大部分争论都围绕着在首都和地区城市提供经济适用房。总体规划屋 (MPE) 已成为澳大利亚的主要住房形式。总体规划的庄园通常包括私人治理机制，以规范居民行为和建筑设计，提高销售潜力并为居民创造更好的生活环境。本文使用三个 MPE 的案例研究探讨了建筑设计规范 (BDC) 的各个方面，包括其基本原理、对初始参与的贡献和居民体验。研究发现，虽然 BDC 被认为是改善房地产销售和长期运营不可或缺的一部分，但开发商的承诺会随着时间的推移而下降。BDC 通过创造可预测性来帮助吸引新居民。屋村居民在很大程度上支持 BDC，有些人在开发商的承诺下降时感到被遗弃。结果是通过商品的角度来解释的，商品的角度考虑了生产、交换和消费的时刻是如何通过文化衍生的家庭和家庭制作过程概念来影响的。
