One hundred years ago, the Addison Act created the circumstances
for the large scale construction of municipal housing in the UK.
This would lead to the most prolific phases of housing estate
building the country has ever seen. The legacy of this historic
period has been tackled for the last twenty-five years as these
estates began to suffer from misguided allocation policies,
systemic building and fabric failure and financial austerity. A
series of estate regeneration programmes sought to rectify the
mistakes of the past. Estate Regeneration describes 24 of these
regeneration schemes from across the UK and the design philosophy
and resident engagement which formed each new community. A number
of essays from a wide range of industry experts amplify the
learning experience from some key estate regeneration initiatives
and provide observations on the broader issues of this sector of
the housing market. Regeneration is inevitable; it is a matter of
the form which regeneration should take. The information presented
here is a guide to an intuitive approach to estate regeneration
which commences with the derivation of strong urban design
principles and is guided by real community engagement. The
experience presented seeks to learn from the mistakes of the past
to create the best possible platform for regeneration of the
housing estates of the future.
