A Lecture by Irina Davidovici (ETH Zürich) organized by the PhD Programme of the Architectural Association (AA London).
Join us on Zoom at 6 pm UK time on Feb 10!
This lecture examines the bourgeois projections and expectations that underlined the reform of early working-class housing estates in late-19th and early-20th century London. It hypothesizes that the urban and architectural developments that distinguish the earlier Peabody Trust standardized estates from the subsequent London Country Council inner-city housing are underpinned by the ideological recodings of domestic, urban, and socio-economic spheres in the space of five decades.
