Add to basketArchitects are at the forefront of a new generation of social housing projects that are playing a crucial role in the reinvention of cities.
Public housing is a growing sector undergoing a huge period of change. As local authorities and design practitioners take on the housing crisis, they must navigate contemporary issues of demographic change, climate adaptation and rising costs.
Social Housing provides a roadmap. This new edition of the landmark 2017 volume showcases the best affordable housing from across the UK and Europe. Through a range of essays and interviews from leading practitioners, it provides practical insights into the very different mechanisms behind delivery across European nations.
Examining 25 case studies from seven countries, the book breaks down boundaries between national cultures and addresses pressing issues such as climate resilience, zero carbon, ageing populations, urban equity and material innovation. Exploring quality neighbourhood and dwelling design, Social Housing inspires practitioners and housing pioneers to learn, adapt and propose solutions for the future.
Featuring:
Paul Karakusevic is an architect and practice founder with over 15 years working at the forefront of a new era of social housing, delivering a wide range of successful projects.
Abigail Batchelor is an architect and urban designer specialising in the housing sector. She has international experience working in the Netherlands, Belgium and France, and is also a teacher and educator.
