'Social Housing Homes in 25 Paintings' describes how these homes rose to prominence from the slums of the Industrial Revolution and the destruction of war-torn Britain.

Following the wars, the Government passed various Acts aimed at improving or demolishing existing homes that were unfit for habitation and building the homes that we may see today.

This is an illustrated story of how these homes were built to meet the demand of the many millions of people who lived in them.

The book details various construction types used to fix holes in the demand for homes in war-torn Britain.

The book is illustrated with original artwork that tries to evoke the relationships between the people from the social housing sector and their homes of the day.

Many of these homes and communities are still with us all today.

Reviews for SOCIAL HOUSING HOMES IN 25 PAINTINGS: AN ILLUSTRATED STORY OF UK SOCIAL HOUSING

'A genuine attempt to illustrate what these new homes actually meant to the millions who lived in them. For many of baby boomers and their families, these properties gave them safety and shelter and allowed them to thrive through the generations. It allowed Britain to be what it is today.'
