Description

Explore the foundational principles of Community Architecture with this Routledge Revival edition. Originally published in 1987, this book examines the movement that gained significant momentum across Britain during the 1970s and 1980s. It highlights the approach championed by Prince Charles, focusing on how people can actively shape their own surroundings. The text presents a conceptual framework based on the idea that the built environment works best when residents participate in its design and daily management. By studying how local engagement affects urban development, readers gain insight into a movement that has helped shape policy makers and planning legislation. This work serves as a primary reference for those studying the social aspects of design. It is a valuable resource for student architects, urban planners, and anyone interested in the history of participatory design and how community involvement influences the way we live.
