Sinopsis

Considering the interrelationships between disability and housing design with a focus on the role of policy in addressing the housing needs of disabled people, this book sets out some of the broader debates about the nature of housing, quality and design. In what waysáare domestic design and architecture implicated in inhibiting or facilitating mobility and movement of people? What is the nature of government regulation and policy in relation to the design of home environments? The authoráaddresses these questions, and brings aárange of approaches to accessible design in housing to the forefront of debate, assessing how far policies and practices areáequal to the challenge ofácreating accessible and desirable home environments.
