- Title
A New Era of Social Housing: Architecture as the Basis for Change.
- Authors
Karakusevic, Paul
- Abstract
The UK has an enviable track record of high‐quality social housing provision, but this has been damaged by reduced or counterproductive state involvement. So argues Paul Karakusevic, whose London practice Karakusevic Carson Architects is among a number worldwide that are lobbying for change in how social housing is done. He cautions against one‐size‐fits‐all approaches, advocating instead close collaborations between local authorities, architects and residents' associations. His own firm's experience designing mixed‐tenure, mixed‐typology models via this method shows that there is reason for optimism.
