High Street How our town centres can bounce back from the retail crisis

The high street is in crisis. How did we get here and what happens next? The global pandemic has made the crisis immeasurably worse but it wasn’t the cause. The crisis was already raging in 2019 with thousands of store closures. Large retailers became complacent and failed to respond to changing consumer behaviour. Town centres are the victims of these changes rather than the cause of them. To understand the current crisis and how it might be addressed this book takes a long view of retailing based on a hundred case studies. It looks at the way town centres responded to previous crises and explores current trends affecting town centres and how places are responding. The message is optimistic: adaptable town centres can once more become the diverse characterful independent places that existed before they were homogenised by big retail. Explore the past – understand the present – find a better future. | High Street How our town centres can bounce back from the retail crisis

This guide is designed to improve industry’s grasp of ethical decision-making as it relates to the wider world society clients the workplace the profession and the individual. Each chapter introduces an ethical duty setting out the relevant legal regulatory and professional context before exploring the detailed subject matter and key principles. It includes an ethical dilemma for each duty and views and experiences from inside the profession. Delving into issues of equity diversity and inclusion social value wellbeing and integrity it does not seek our ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ answers. Rather it encourages reflection on different interests consequences and considerations in order to reach a considered and balanced position. While ethical practice is invaluable in itself it is also vital for establishing trust with clients improving transparency enhancing reputation attracting and retaining high-quality staff avoiding disputes and for a high-level of accountability that benefits the entire industry and society more broadly. | RIBA Ethical Practice Guide

Eric Lyons and Span

Due to popular demand we are delighted to offer this new paperback edition of Eric Lyons and Span. Lavishly illustrated and deeply researched this book celebrates the work of the architect Eric Lyons OBE (1912-1980) whose famous post-war housing - that today would be marketed as 'lifestyle housing' - is as well-loved today as it was vibrantly successful when first constructed. Built almost entirely for Span Developments its mission was to provide an affordable environment that gave people a lift. Influenced by Walter Gropius Lyons brought a commitment to high density housing and the idea of fostering community into his Span work without compromising his intuitive sensitivity for landscape. His success brought the practice an impressive array of awards and led to a term as President of the RIBA. The enduring success of his design philosophy can be traced forward to 2005 when Span received a special Housing Design Award given to schemes that meet the current Sustainable Communities Plan. Indeed the concept of Span mirrors current best practice thinking in housing design and continues to offer a fresh relevant challenge to volume housebuilders in Britain today. This book serves as a lively reminder of that fact. Written by distinguished historians practitioners and Span enthusiasts the book has been researched using the archive compiled by Ivor Cunningham one of Lyons ex-partners while a detailed gazetteer contains scale plan drawings of many of Spans housing templates.

Accessible and engaging this book will be an invaluable resource for students as well as practicing architects richly illustrated with case studies showing both good and bad examples of inclusive design and celebrating inclusion. | Are you an inclusive designer?
