The housing crisis in Europe is evident. A multitude of factors, such as the global economic crisis of 2008, speculative forms of development, austerity measures and an increased housing demand linked to the influx of refugees, has resulted in a shortage of affordable shelter for all. The consequent growing homelessness has generated new forms of settlements typically associated with the imaginaries of ‘informal cities’ in the South or during the Industrial Revolution in Europe. The proposed research focuses on various manifestations of these emerging housing formats and investigates the formal-informal continuum in the housing market as a site of critical analysis of the contemporary urban development process on the continent. This involves an analysis of visible and semi-visible forms of informal housing in London and Paris including shantytowns (bidonvilles), self-made refugee camps and appropriated living spaces. More specifically the project intends to investigate: the role of informal housing as a housing access strategy vis-à-vis official housing channels in London and Paris; the ways in which housing informalities unfold themselves in the urban morphology of these cities, and the role of policies and regulations in shaping various forms of urban informalities. As such the research will provide a diagnosis of the precarious housing formats in London and Paris and support possible measures to address this problem in a European context. The research uses a mixed-methods approach combining planning and social science methods with spatial and qualitative data analysis.

欧洲的住房危机证明了这一点。许多因素，例如2008年的全球经济危机，投机性的发展形式，紧缩措施以及与难民影响有关的住房需求增加，导致所有人的负担得起的庇护所不足。随之而来的无家可归者产生了新形式的环境形式，通常与南部或欧洲工业革命期间的“非正式城市”的想象相关。拟议的研究重点介绍了这些新兴住房格式的各种表现形式，并调查了房屋市场的正式信息持续，作为对当代城市发展过程的批判性分析的地点。这涉及分析伦敦和巴黎的可见和半可见形式的非正式住房形式，包括Shantytowns（Bidonvilles），自制的难民营和适当的生活空间。更具体地说，该项目打算调查：非正式住房作为伦敦和巴黎官方住房渠道的住房访问策略的作用；住房非正式在这些城市的城市形态以及政策和法规在塑造各种形式的城市非正式方面的作用。因此，这项研究将诊断伦敦和巴黎的不稳定住房格式，并支持在欧洲背景下解决这一问题的可能措施。该研究使用混合方法方法将计划和社会科学方法与空间和定性数据分析相结合。
