An invaluable guide to designing housing for children and young people, demonstrating why they must be listened to when building communities.
How can we meet the needs of children and young people?

Just over 20% of the UK population is under the age of 18, yet they remain largely ignored when it comes to designing the places where they live.

In this book, leading architect Dinah Bornat shows how we can shape communities for and with children and young people, as well as the benefits this can achieve.

It combines compelling evidence, guidance and illustrated case studies to provide practical solutions for replacing, refurbishing, and reinvigorating an ageing housing stock through child-friendly design.

It has become increasingly important for everyone involved in built environment projects to demonstrate a commitment to social value. This book provides opportunities to realise social value in a number of ways, including better engagement.

Dinah Bornat is an architect and co-founder of ZCD Architects, a practice based in East London. She has worked in architecture practice for over 35 years, starting at Edward Cullinan Architects and then setting up ZCD Architects in 2013 with Zoe Smith and Cordula Weisser. The practice has become well known for child-friendly design and engagement and Dinah has used this knowledge as a Mayor’s Design Advocate for the Mayor of London, as a member of several Design Review Panels, and has provided expert advice to Parliament, local government and a range of organisations and projects.
