- This book marks the culmination of a multi-faceted, 5-year project funded by three EPSRC research grants. The research entailed face-to-face interviews with over 80 senior professionals plus 12 workshops with an additional 200+ developers, planners, architects, engineers and contractors. Through its 300+ pages, and 230+ images and photographs, the book presents 32 in-depth case studies. These were developed through site surveys, interviews, meetings and project documents provided by practices in the USA, Israel, Denmark and the UK. Delicate work, over an extended period, succeeded in commissioning 15 world-leading architects to produce designs, and sketches specifically for this research.
