September 2024
AAB have been working with ECD Architects and Architects for Social Housing to hold an exhibition at the Building Centre, exploring the social and environmental benefits of retrofitting the UK’s social housing estates as opposed to demolishing and rebuilding them.
See details here:
The exhibition showed three case studies including our research into a retrofit alternative for West Kentish Town Estate, which can be downloaded here:
On 25th September 2024 we held two panel discussions exploring the benefits and barriers to the more widespread implementation of retrofitting in policy and practice, reviewed here by the RIBA Journal:
