Table of ContentsIntroduction History Case Studies Types of Deck Access United Kingdom Mainland Europe Practical GuideReviews'The virtues of deck access housing are still a matter for debate, but recent examples gathered in this book show how valuable it can be. With photos, plans and explanatory texts setting out a wide range of case studies, fronted by a historical introduction and backed up with clear analytical guidance on variations of the typology and costing, The Deck Access Housing Design Guide argues convincingly for this solution. Professionals, students and anyone with an interest in contemporary housing will have their eyes opened.' - Alan Powers, design history leader, London School of Architecture 'This is a timely book which is both stimulating and informative, and tackles the social and technical challenges of deck access in a pragmatic way. Ultimately, this book shows that deck access can not only work, but also be life-enhancing, as long as thoughtful designers and clients are involved.' - Claire Bennie, director, Municipal and former development director, Peabody Author InformationAndrew Beharrell is a former director and senior partner of Pollard Thomas Edwards.
