Here I am talking to @katelamble@BBCNewsnight about how to prevent overheating in homes… its time to stop designing single aspect flats and mandate shading. Deck access is just one way to do this…but more guidance from @Good_Homes coming soon!

Reference has been made to the survey that LSE did for @PTEarchitects which found that most residents of high-density housing in London were unhappy with the management. Most wanted to be living in a house instead soon.
The impact of open spaces and the trade-off for new home capacity has been discussed - We have many policies in place to protect open space but we don't have any numerical targets except in a few local cases.
They are calling for better data and information about open space. And consider targets for access to open space as Camden has done.
Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park was the case study with the most open space.
@PTEarchitects have gone on to talk about the role of tenure and the life of high-rise buildings - with architects saying buildings are designed for 60 years, but sold on 250y leases.
Overall conclusion from their book is that there is a role for high-rise housing but we need to do it well and with a lifetime costed model - a technical and social challenge.
From winning trust after Grenfell to successful infill, collaborating with communities is vital.
