As Rowan Moore concludes,
The UK is not 'completely without quality when it comes to social housing... But there’s a level of imagination & determination in some of the best European projects, combined with a breadth of vision that includes the social as well as the functional aspects of housing, that our risk-averse public agencies have yet to match'!
We need to look to European examples if we are to really make social housing work better for us.
