The government has identified that in order to meet the UK's pressing housing need we will collectively need to deliver 300,000 homes a year. The enormity of the task ahead lends itself to a multitude of solutions, and the BPF is keen to explore the housing options that are currently on offer, and where lessons may be learnt from international experiences.
1. COMPACT LIVING: Small houses including all the basic housing needs in their private space.
2. CO-LIVING: Purpose-built spaces including a mixture of personal and shared amenity space.
3. SHARED LIVING: Transformed or subdivided houses so that some facilities are shared by the residents outside of their personal space.
