Community architecture has emerged as a powerful force for
change in the way people all over the world are creating their own homes,
neighbourhoods and cities.
The basic principle is simple: the built environment works better if the
people who use it are directly and actively involved in its creation and
management. The movement embraces planning, development, landscape, art
and design as well as architecture and other forms of technical aid. It
has brought together an extraordinary alliance of community groups,
professionals, churchleaders and politicians of all parties - and caused
major ructions in the professions as a result.
Charles Knevitt and Nick Wates wrote and broadcast on the development of
the Community Architecture movement for over ten years before writing this
book - the first on the subject. It explains how and why Community
Architecture works and reveals the full story of the quiet revolution which
provides hope for communities everywhere.
