Shared accommodation for care leavers; straw bale self-build proposal to tackle rural homelessness; and a new set of design codes for temporary housing were among the finalists for a major architecture prize awarded last night in London.
The overall winner of this year’s Davidson Prize was Helping Hands, which aims to address the urgent need for temporary homeless accommodation and support services in Bootle, Liverpool, with a particular focus on the needs of young people leaving the care system.
