Abstract
Terraced or link houses is one of the most popular housing schemes preferred by Malaysians. Conversely, the concept has its disadvantages and could not complement to the individual needs and personal satisfaction of personalisation. The most distinctive evidence is the practice to renovate or modify houses. Users make changes for various reasons such as for personal needs, functional requirements or just for aesthetic appeal. It is also much based on individual affordability and the timing for the modifications. A questionnaire survey was conducted in a terraced housing development to establish the personalisation trends and the motivational desires behind the personalisation.
