This book presents 25 inspirational housing schemes providing hope
for the future of home building in Britain. Highlighting the need
for the UK to reclaim its sense of local identity through the
vernacular, these case studies are not just examples of good design
but demonstrate the achievable nature of contemporary vernacular in
today's society. Generating a sense of place, community and
regional identity, these schemes are also affordable and highly
energy efficient. Through site visits and interviews with both
architects and residents, each case study explores how the schemes
were delivered, how they have been received by the community, and
how passive principles of vernacular design were applied to create
true sustainability.
