Abstract

This paper presents an overview of an internship undertaken at Arch Vision Plus, with a particular focus on the planning and development of high-rise and residential housing schemes. The internship experience provided an opportunity to explore the intersection of contemporary architectural design and sustainable planning strategies within the context of rapidly urbanizing environments. Emphasis was placed on addressing environmental considerations, including energy efficiency, climate responsiveness, and the integration of green spaces, as essential components of resilient and livable urban housing developments. Participation in project design reviews, site planning exercises, and collaborative design discussions offered valuable insights into the professional processes that inform architectural practice. The internship further highlighted the role of innovative design approaches in meeting the increasing demands of urban living while simultaneously mitigating environmental impacts. Key learning outcomes included the application of academic knowledge to the challenges around the world. The development of professional design skills, and the recognition of the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in shaping sustainable housing solutions. Overall, the internship experience provided a practical framework for understanding how architectural practices can balance modern trends in high-rise and residential housing with ecological and social responsibilities. The study underscores the relevance of integrating sustainable principles into contemporary architectural practice and contributes to the broader discourse on environmentally responsive urban development.
