Here the architects themselves—Stephen Bates, Philip Christou, Tom Emerson, Tony Fretton, David Kohn, Alex Lifschutz, Peter Salter, Alan Stanton and Stephen Taylor—talk openly about the schemes they delivered with Baylight: what they set out to achieve, what stood in the way and what had to give.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book sets these projects within a much longer story of British homebuilding—from the great London estates and the model villages of industrial philanthropists such as Port Sunlight and Bournville, to Georgian and Victorian speculative builders and the architect-developers of the postwar decades. Ellis Woodman, director of the Architecture Foundation, opens with an essay on why good housing has been so hard to build in the UK over this period and what distinguishes Baylight's approach from volume housebuilding. It closes with a checklist of the qualities that make homes rather than simply houses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCandid reflections from nine leading British architects on their work with a single developer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn introductory essay by Ellis Woodman, director of the Architecture Foundation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlaces recent schemes within Britain's long history of estate, philanthropic and speculative housebuilding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConcludes with a practical checklist for making successful homes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Discover\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow a sustained developer–architect relationship can raise the quality of residential design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe ambitions, constraints and compromises behind individual housing schemes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow shifts in UK planning, regulation and housing culture have shaped what gets built\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat separates considered, design-led development from mainstream volume building\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCrispin Kelly trained as an architect and founded the property development company Baylight Properties.
