Housing Solutions through Design explores housing design with a
special focus on affordability. It gives the perspectives of
academics who research and teach on housing; professionals who
design and build, and students who are learning. The book
foregrounds innovative approaches of the designers of today and
tomorrow. This book is the second in the Housing the Future Series,
one of the aims of which is to collate a broad sample of the work
being done from a design perspective in universities across the
world on the issue of affordable housing. This very 'real'
engagement with the issues of housing affordability is a key
component of this series and is why the series invites
practitioners to discuss their work. In Housing Solutions through
Design, those practitioners include an award-winning commercial
practice from the UK, Shed KM, and two of the most important
reference points in the area of housing affordability and community
development internationally - the world-renowned Herman
Hertzberger, from the Netherlands, and the US-based but
internationally active Habitat for Humanity. The inclusion of the
work of such practices is not simply important because of their
undoubted international status: it is important because of the work
they do and the role models they represent for a generation of
architects and designers who, in the coming years, will be faced
with the need - and the opportunity - to develop new approaches to
housing design.
