New Visions: Re‐imagine Ageing RIBA Design Competition 2013
Lack of public funding and commercial constraints often restrict fresh thinking coming to the fore when designing housing for older people, as the potential for architects to respond innovatively in practice remains limited. In 2013, developer McCarthy & Stone and the RoyalInstitute of British Architects (RIBA) paired up to launch the Re‐imagine Ageing design competition, which asked architects to provide visionary responses to designing proposals for a typical retirement site on a brownfield plot in Bishop's Waltham, Hampshire. Guest‐Editor Lorraine Farrelly describes the work of the award‐winners and explains how this unique chance to develop and research more far‐reaching approaches to retirement housing has gone on to inform their work.
