Dwelling in the Future

Drawing together writings, drawings, and photographs produced over the past decade, this volume focuses specifically on the issue of contemporary land value, availability and use as the fundamental condition determining architectural production and, in particular, housing. Presenting a series of comparative proposals by PdAA for 7 housing/ mixed-use developments in the UK, it provides detailed, comparative examples of designs for the making of humane and generous dwelling environments, incorporating opportunities for social interaction, individual self-expression, and equable coexistence which acknowledges the cultural difference and diversity typical of contemporary society.
