Housing Fit For Purpose by Fionn Stevenson

Housing Fit For Purpose by Fionn Stevenson

Housing Fit for Purpose sets out a research-focused approach to looking at the challenges facing the built environment in approaching the design, construction and management of housing. This book uses original research by the author on housing performance evaluation and distils it for built environment professionals, arguing that learning from feedback should be taking place at every stage of the housing project lifecycle, improving outcomes for end users. Drawing on active research, this book shows why and how the design, construction and management of housing can be linked to feedback and actual evidence of how people choose, and learn, to use their homes. It examines the key concepts which underlie participatory design, occupancy feedback and learning, and includes a practical primer on how to undertake housing occupancy feedback.

Fionn Stevenson holds a Chair in Sustainable Design and is the Head of the University of Sheffield School of Architecture. Her research and consultancy work focuses on developing innovative methods of building performance evaluation in relation to occupancy feedback and social learning in order to improve building design. She is particularly interested in the use of environmental controls by people in buildings from a holistic perspective which includes resource use in its widest dimension. Her focus is on housing. She advises various government bodies and NGOs, and has over 100 publications to date.
