Housing, and access to affordable housing, is key to creating a just, inclusive and sustainable city. For both future and current city-shapers there is much to learn from Vienna. The Viennese have long demonstrated how to deliver high-quality, innovative and sustainable affordable housing, resulting in the creation of one of the world’s most liveable and equitable cities. A product of an interdisciplinary and international joint course between TU Wien and UNSW Sydney, this book presents a collection of portraits of Viennese affordable housing projects. Each portrait offers insights into the design outcomes of each project, making this book an excellent introduction to better understand housing in Vienna.

Singapore's successful public housing programme is a source of political legitimacy for the ruling People's Action Party. Beng-Huat Chua accounts for the success of public housing in Singapore and draws out lessons for other nations. Housing in Singapore, he explains in this incisive analysis, is seen neither as a consumer good (as in the US) nor as a social right (as in the social democracies of Europe). The author goes on to look at the ways in which Singapore's planners have dealt with the problems of creating communities in a modern urban environment. He concludes that the success of the

In einer Zeit des gesellschaftlichen Aufbruchs plante die Werkgruppe Graz im Jahre 1965 die Terrassenhaussiedlung in Graz-St. Peter, die zwischen 1972 und 1978 gebaut wurde. Die Planer – Mitglieder der avantgardistischen Künstlervereinigung Forum Stadtpark – wandten sich gegen das verfestigte System des Wohnbaus, das von monotoner Gestaltung und Zersiedelung durch Einfamilienhäuser geprägt war. Sie vertraten den utopischen Anspruch einer Beteiligung der Bewohner*innen am Planungsprozess, der seine bauliche Entsprechung in einer strukturalistischen Grundstruktur mit anpassbaren Wohneinheiten findet. Internationale Anerkennung erlangte die Siedlung, die sich in vier terrassierten Blöcken aus Sichtbeton am Grazer Stadtrand erhebt, durch ihre brutalistische und skulpturale Erscheinung.Gelebte Utopie liefert erstmals eine Sammlung von architekturhistorischen und -kritischen Texten über die Siedlung, gibt Einblicke in die Lebenswelten der Bewohner*innen und ist angereichert mit künstlerischen Projekten. The Werkgruppe Graz designed the terraced housing estate in Graz-St. Peter in 1965, during a period of societal upheaval. The complex was eventually built between 1972 and 1978. The planning group—members of the avant-garde artists’ association Forum Stadtpark—took a stand against the established system of residential construction, which was characterized by monotone design and the urban sprawl of single-family homes. Instead, they championed the utopian approach of involving residents in the planning process, which was reflected in the development’s basic structuralist framework with adaptable living units. Comprised of four terraced housing blocks in exposed concrete at the edge of Graz, the estate’s sculptural, brutalist appearance received international acclaim. Gelebte Utopie is the first book to provide a collection of texts of architectural commentary and context on the settlement. It additionally offers insights into the inhabitants’ living spaces and is enriched with artistic projects.

Homeless young adults represent a failure of the U.S. social services system to prevent new generations of homeless people. However, several organizations are working in concert with communities and governments to combat this problem through transitional housing programs that target young adults ages 18 to 24. Many of these programs mirror the new urban development trend of mixed-income housing, and place transitional houses inside stable neighborhoods that are either affluent or mixed-income themselves. While these programs represent monumental commitments in terms of resources, they also rep
