Come and hear quick fire presentations from some of UK's leading practitioners in the recent rejuvenation of Council Housing. The speakers will cover Council Housing through different approaches, case studies and lenses, including: architectural design; landscape design; co-design and engagement; demolition and re-build; infill; retrofit and sustainability; the international perspective; and of course urban design.
The presentations will be followed by a Q+A debate on the future of Council Housing in the UK and then drinks and networking. All welcome, especially those working on or with an interest in Council Housing.
