BEYOND HOUSEBUILDING - The 2016 Housing Design Awards Seminar
Event Information
Description
HOUSING DESIGN AWARDS SEMINAR 2016 : Beyond Housebuilding
Monday 11th July at the Kelvin Theatre, IET, 2 Savoy Place, London WC2R 0BL
Britain needs to build some 250,000 new homes each year, but business as usual can't meet demand. Where else could the numbers come from?
2016’s Awards entries demonstrate innovative approaches to housing procurement and design - from consumer responsive offsite production, to custom-build and co-housing, and local authority direct commissioning.
Speakers from HDA-shortlisted design teams will examine these three approaches in detailed case studies introduced and chaired by HDA judges, followed by discussion and networking.
