Abstract: Projections of current urbanisation trends show urban spaces will need to be multiplied by two between 2000 and 2050 in developed countries. Rapid urbanisation will need new settlements for the growing population. If those new settlements cannot meet the necessities of adequate housing, they will become part of the ongoing global inadequate settlement problem. Dağ Mahallesi, locally known as “Renkli Evler” is one of the inadequate settlements in Kuşadası, Aydın. This research intends to suggest exemplary solution-oriented strategic approach for inadequate settlements such as informal settlements, and slums in the case study of Renkli Evler. Strategies should cover the inhabitant's problems by taking into consideration both social sustainability and environmental necessities. Improving the inhabitant's wellbeing, social integration is one of the key factors. Enhancing the sense of belonging for inhabitants and promoting the communal spaces with the help of acknowledgement of cultural and social values is important to achieve sustainable solutions.
