Magazine arts show. In an era of rising prices and housing shortages, the V&A's architecture curator Kieran Long explores the future of the home in Britain.
The V&A's architecture curator Kieran Long explores the future of the home in Britain. In an era of rising prices and housing shortages across much of the UK, Long talks to British architects who are designing homes for the future. He visits a new RIBA exhibition that reimagines the staples of British housing: the terraced house, the cottage and the flat.
Long travels to the Venice Architecture Biennale to see the British entry entitled 91热爆 Economics, where new types of living spaces have been constructed from scratch. In London he visits the first privately funded social housing scheme in the capital - the William Street Quarter in Barking - and talks to the residents who really love living there.
