More about the book

Focusing on innovative urban design, this book explores a groundbreaking collective housing initiative in Camden during the 1960s and 1970s. A team of architects moved away from traditional tower blocks, opting instead for high-density, low-rise structures that emphasized street-level accessibility and community. The work highlights the significance of these architectural choices and their implications for contemporary urban planning, offering valuable lessons for future developments.
