Housing: how architects can design for wellbeing and equality. Event at The Building Centre

Posted on November 15, 2017 by spinozaresearchnetwork

6 December 2017, 6:30 PM

The Building Centre

This event, chaired by Peg Rawes and featuring architects who contributed to project film Equal by Design, is part of the Making Wellbeing: from Birth to Death exhibition at The Building Centre, curated by The Built Environment Trust.

Tickets and further information available here.

Solutions to the housing crisis are political and complex with change needed at policy level as well as across the building industry. However, debates often exclude the role of the architect. This event will explore how architects can be actively involved in addressing issues of inequality and disparities of wellbeing in the built environment through housing design and provision.

Architects Peter Barber, Alex Ely and Sarah Wigglesworth will talk about their approaches to human-centred design and concerns for wellbeing. The speakers will shed light on the positive agency an architect can have and will consider what must be addressed for such approaches to have a stronger influence on housing provision and wider architectural practice.

The individual presentations will be followed by a chaired panel discussion and audience Q+A.

Speakers:

– Peter Barber, director of Peter Barber Architects

– Alex Ely, principal of Mæ Architects

– Sarah Wigglesworth, director of Sarah Wigglesworth Architects

Chair: Peg Rawes, co-author of Equal By Design and senior lecturer at the Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London

Tickets and further information available here.
