John T. Dunlop Lecture: Peter Barber, “Reimagining Social Housing”

Peter Barber is the founder of Peter Barber Architects, an award-winning practice based in London known for its radical approach to social housing and urban planning. In this lecture, Barber will highlight some of his firm’s award-winning social housing projects, such as Donnybrook Quarter, a 40-unit, low-rise, high-density, mixed-use project near Victoria Park in London, and Edgewood Mews, a 97-unit urban block arranged around a pedestrianized street near North Circular Road in London’s Barnet borough. He will review the political and ideological contexts in which these and other projects were conceived and describe his firm’s analog design process, which makes extensive use of hand sketches and hand-made models.
