The book demonstrates how new houses can be designed to be more
sustainable and ergonomic. Specifically, it describes a prototype
building that could be constructed in the near future. Responding
to some of the poor standards of mass estate housing in the UK and
its out-of-date space standards, it contributes towards improving
the current status quo by describing a house design, including
drawings, that can compete with today's mass housing. The author
examines the traditional geometrical reliance on the square in the
design of houses and the planning of housing estates and promotes
instead the adoption of polygonal forms. This is explained using
geometric analysis, diagrams and references to existing housing.
These concepts have been developed with reference to technical
literature from various companies with one company interested in
taking it further. Providing a novel and up-to-date design concept,
this book is of value to practitioners and researchers looking to
improve the standard of mass housing in the UK. It is also of
interest to anyone wishing to build their own house and to
manufacturers wanting to move into modern housing technology.
