Design philosophy and practice in speculative housebuilding: Part 2
Since this paper was written, the housing sector has witnessed considerable changes. In the second half of 1980 when our survey was carried out, housing production in the public sector still outstripped that in the private sector; local authorities were still able to determine, to a much greater extent, the composition of housing they supplied; public sector designs were still subject to Parker Morris standards. However, the alteration of the context in which our survey was undertaken serves only to underline the case argued in this paper for continuing the evaluation of house building performance in terms of its response to the institutional motivations and constraints specific to each sector.
