This book examines the architectural design of housing projects in
Ireland from the mid-twentieth century. This period represented a
high point in the construction of the Welfare State project where
the idea that architecture could and should shape and define
community and social life was not yet considered problematic.
Exploring a period when Ireland embraced the free market and the
end of economic protectionism, the book is a series of case studies
supported by critical narratives. Little known but of high quality,
the schemes presented in this volume are by architects whose
designs helped determine future architectural thinking in Ireland
and elsewhere. Aimed at academics, students and researchers, the
book is accompanied by new drawings and over 100 full colour
images, with the example studies demonstrating rich architectural
responses to a shifting landscape.
