I'm exceptionally proud to share the video of our final outcomes for our collaborative architectural summer school between @Cambridge_Uni and @TUBerlin that looks at urban refugee shelter, hosted by @SFB1265 and funded by @ahrcpress: vimeo.com/406534207

Since 2010 first-time buyers have had to take out longer mortgages; buy later in life; use larger deposits; push back starting families; rely more on the Bank of Mom and Dad, and live with their parents for longer to keep up with rising house prices.

Our @Savills Housing Market Update for July is out now.
The story this month: Prices held steady but the spike in mortgage rates will put further strain on affordability

A residential market shaped by high inflation, rental growth of over 30%, refugee arrivals, and very high levels of owner-occupancy. Great to catch up with @Savills colleagues in @SavillsPoland to learn about housing in Krakow and the wider country.

A chance to blend my love of architecture with residential research in my recent @Savills blog in the wake of @The_RHS Chelsea Flower Show: the best places in the UK to access our rich heritage of garden design in @HistoricEngland's registered gardens.

And that's a wrap! I hope to have done justice to the insights my interlocutors provided. A huge thanks to everyone who has made the last four years in Cambridge so wonderful, especially those at Pembroke College and the Department of Architecture. #PhDone
2 years today since we hosted our architectural summer school in a refugee shelter in Berlin. As the Afghanistan situation unfolds, it's clear we need to do more to make our cities and housing markets more receptive to refugee arrivals.

It's a shame to not have a physical end of year show, but the students have done a fantastic job of putting one together online. There are some wonderful projects and I'm exceptionally proud to be a part of the department. @arch_cambridge dezeen.com/2020/07/15/univer… via @dezeen

Delighted to have contributed towards this with a chapter on the emergency and container shelters for refugees in the former #Tempelhof airport. Particularly poignant at a time when the containers may be re-opened after the shelter closed last year. @berghahnbooks
Out now, a new book edited by @tomscottsmith and Mark Breeze, ‘Structures of Protection? Rethinking Refugee Shelter’ questions what shelter is and how we can define it, from @berghahnbooks bit.ly/3gcHy3B
Tomorrow at 17:30 we are presenting the outcomes of our collaborative #architecturesummerschool between @Cambridge_Uni and @TUBerlin, funded by the @ahrcpress and hosted by @SFB1265. Please note the change of location to the Lucia Windsor room in @Newnham_College!
Next Tuesday in Cambridge we will be presenting the outcomes of our summer school project 'Designs for a Refugee Shelter Rooftop' hosted by the @CentreGHuM. It'll be a great event where we discuss the architectural questions posed by the so-called 'Refugee Crisis.'
Looking forward to presenting the work from our collaborative summer school here at @Cambridge_Uni, and hosting visitors from @TUBerlin. Join us to discuss the profound questions of refugees, shelter, and cities. @SFB1265 @CamDTP

What a fantastic week with exceptional students from @Cambridge_Uni and @TUBerlin. Plenty more info to come, but for now I want to thank everyone who helped make this project possible. The residents really enjoyed their afternoon on the shelter rooftop. @SFB1265 @ahrcpress
It's an intense but rewarding last few days. Yesterday the summer school visited Tempelhof, the former largest refugee shelter in Germany. It was a delight to see the wonderful @tentaja project encouraging community interaction through sports. #summerschool #berlin

Excited to announce the culmination of our collaborative summer school between @Cambridge_Uni and @TUBerlin, hosted by @SFB1265 and fully funded by @ahrcpress. On Saturday we open a roof-terrace atop a refugee shelter in Berlin to display our designs and facilitate discussion
The @arch_cambridge and @TUBerlin collaborative summer school is well underway. A beautiful morning on the rooftop of Refugio, gaining inspiration for our own rooftop in Wannsee. #refugeeshelter #berlin #rooftop
Logistics for the collaborative summer school are ramping up. A sustainable and fun way to deliver all the tools and equipment to the shelter, although it did take two hours! On Sunday we welcome the architecture students from @arch_cambridge and @TUBerlin

Excited to announce the collaborative architectural summer school I have organised for 26 students from @arch_cambridge @Cambridge_Uni and @TUBerlin next month. A fantastic chance for knowledge exchange and utilising academic research to have a real-world impact.
