Adjustable Housing: a transdisciplinary approach to delivering social, environmental and economically sustainable homes

可调节住房是一种跨学科的方法，以提供社会，环境和经济可持续的家园。它旨在帮助处于业主职业边缘的人适应他们住房需求的变化，而不是期望他们购买比他们需要更多的空间或在他们的需求变化时搬家。它是建立在一个愿望，以帮助使什么已经被称为共同住房更容易和主流。申请人的实践为基础的博士学位已经产生了一系列的建议，将通过这个项目实施的可调节住房。申请人是库利南工作室的合伙人-英国领先的建筑实践-并将借调到阅读大学的建筑环境学院三年。库利南工作室和申请人都与学校有很强的现有研究关系。拟议的产出将包括为行业读者编写的可调节住房实施指南，以及为非专业读者编写和绘制的可调节住房案例研究专著。在英国政府重新制定其规划体系之际，迫切需要这种关于“住房需求”的新观点。

Adjustable Housing is a transdisciplinary approach to the delivery of socially, environmentally and economically sustainable homes. It aims to help people on the edges of owner occupation adapt to changes in their housing needs, without expecting them to buy more space than they need or move house when their needs change. It is built on a desire to help make what has come to be known as co-housing more accessible and mainstream. The applicant's practice-based PhD has given rise to a series of recommendations for the implementation of Adjustable Housing that will be operationalised through this project. The applicant is a partner at Cullinan Studio - a leading UK architecture practice - and will be seconded to the University of Reading's School of the Built Environment for three years. Both Cullinan Studio and the applicant have a strong existing research relationship with the School. The proposed outputs will include a guide for implementing Adjustable Housing, written for an industry audience, and a monograph of Adjustable Housing case studies, written and illustrated for a lay audience. At a time when the government in England is rewriting its planning system, such fresh viewpoints on 'housing need' are urgently required.
