This book explores the global housing crisis, emphasizing adequate housing as a human right. Through essays, it examines the commercialization of housing, the political aspects of design, and architects’ roles in promoting social and spatial justice. Using historical and contemporary projects, it highlights socially focused housing developments in Norway and Europe. It presents housing alternatives for marginalized groups and diverse family constellations. The authors advocate for innovative architectural solutions rooted in community, cooperation, and equality. They show how radical, emancipatory architectural pedagogy can foster critical thinking and collective action, urging architects, activists, educators, and students to champion social justice through design and education.
