Descriere

In the 1960s and 1970s, a team of leading architects established a new type of collective housing in the London Borough of Camden. In place of tower blocks, they created a high-density, low-rise urbanism, based on a return to streets with front doors. This book examinesthis programme and shows how it offers important lessons and insights for thedesign of collective housing today.
