What's New

This House Believes Mass Housing Targets Fail to Provide Homes.

SUMMER DEBATE Thursday June 11th, 6.30pm, BDP Hub, London

Building Futures hosts an evening asking whether we have forgotten what makes a home.

What is the role of central plans, targets and objectives in housing? Have they destroyed quality and extinguished the fundamental meaning of ‘home?’

Chaired by writer Philippa Stockley and features contributions from Daisy Froud of AOC Architecture, Peter Barber of Peter Barber Architects, David Cowans of the Places for People Group and Dominic Papa of S333 Architecture and Urbanism Ltd.
