Question

Restating the question helps frame what we’re evaluating: there are several characteristics historically seen as problematic in postwar terrace houses (1950s), and we’re asked which one is NOT among those characteristics.
Option 1: 'The negative and unhygienic conditions of the laneway considered as slum-like.' This matches common critiques of terrace house layouts from that era, where narrow lanes and back streets could become neglected, dark, and unhygienic, contributing to perceived slum-like conditions. As a result, this option aligns with the problem-focused characteristics typically discussed.
Option 2: 'The decorated formality of the street facing frontage of the terrace house.' Here we consider whether the notion of a highly stylized or formal street-facing façade is a problem characteristic. In many postwar critiques, the façade was often standardized, repetitive, and unremarkable rather than celebrated for decoration; however, the phrase 'decorated formality' implies a deliberate, polished presentation of the frontage, which is not commonly listed as a core problem attribute of these terraces. This option stands out as not fitting the typical negative-characteristic pattern, suggesting it may be the exception among the listed issues.
Option 3: 'The long and narrow telescopic site with little consideration of sun orientation and little access to natural light.' This describes a typical spatial and orientation flaw found in terrace planning of the era, where long, narrow lots limited daylight access and created dim interiors, a frequent architectural complaint.
Option 4: 'The distinct binary aspect of positive frontality and negative back side of the building.' Conceptually, this captures the idea that the front of the terrace is treated as respectable or public while the rear is less celebrated or more neglected, which is a known characteristic in discussions of terrace layouts, reinforcing a problematic divide between front and rear elevations.
Across the options, the key distinction is that most criticisms focus on hygiene, light, and orientation issues rather than on decorative formalism. Therefore, Option 2 diverges from the typical problematic traits and represents the exception. In other words, while the other statements describe tangible shortcomings observed in postwar terraces, the idea of a 'decorated formality' of the street frontage is not usually listed as one of the problematic characteristics associated with these houses.
