  • Fundamentally lack of design vision is a universal issue.

    UK specific issue is the cultural wanking over victorian houses that needs to stop. They are shit.

    Also as @hoefla said there is not enough housing stock so people are stuck with these.

  • Fundamentally lack of design vision is a universal issue.

    That is also very UK specific. I don't know any other country with so many dead ends, barriers and fences is residential areas. The absolute incompetence to build liveable spaces. This is very typical, middle of a residental area but no access between any of the buildings

    here some former social housing from the 70s in Germany, everything is walkable and accessible from any point.



    but a bunch of prison barracks win prizes here.
