Originally published in 1993, as part of the Ethnoscapes: Current Challenges in the Environmental Social Sciences series, reissued now with a new series introduction, Housing: Design, Research and Education, demonstrated some of the diversity and richness of the research being undertaken in housing at time, which took as its starting point peoples’ notion of home and the way in which a sense of home is captured distilled and expressed through various facets of design, and conversely the urgent need for architects and planners to take seriously the everyday scale and scope of peoples’ home experience. The breadth of subject background and cultural location from which these chapters are drawn provides stimulating reading at the same time as presenting a challenging choice of perspectives.

Marjorie Bulos at the time of original publication taught research methods and sociology at South Bank University. Research interests and activities in the previous two years had been focused on exploring a variety of aspects of homeworking. Professor Necdet Teymur (1945-2017) studied architecture, design and social theory; and taught and researched at universities in UK and elsewhere on architectural theory, design and education – with housing as one of the primary focus. He was the course director of Postgraduate Course in International Architectural Practice (1990-94) and the director of the Centre for International Architectural Studies (1991-94) at the School of Architecture, Manchester University (1990-94); and the Dean of Faculty of Architecture at Middle East Technical University in Ankara, Turkey (1997-2000). Necdet Teymur was the author and editor of numerous books, papers and articles on architecture, the environment, housing, design, theory, history and education. His first major book Environmental Discourse won the First Prize and Gold Medal at the II. World Biennale of Architecture in 1983. He was an active member of UIA, IAPS and DRS, editor of Design Research (1982-87) and Bulletin of People-Environment Studies (1995-98) as well as Associate Editor of Journal of Architecture and Planning Research, Environments by Design and Datutop.
