By approaching the discourse on home, and by positioning the home at the confluence of a network of sociocultural identities bound by spatial awareness and design, the writers draw on sociological interpretations of cultural negotiation as well as theoretical underpinnings in architectural design. In so doing, they suggest a reinterpretation of the facilitating role of architecture as sensitive to physical and socio-cultural reconstruction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawn from interviews with residents, architectural surveys, contextual mapping and other visual methods, \u003cem\u003eHome and Community \u003c\/em\u003eexplores home as a construct that is enmeshed with the architectural affordances that the housing scheme represents, that is useful to both architecture and sociology students, as well as practitioners and urban planners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sandra Costa Santos,Nadia Bertolino,Stephen Hicks\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367607107\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367607104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/30\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 124\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.27d","brand":"Sandra Costa Santos","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48799266472191,"sku":"9780367607104","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/home-and-community-sandra-costa-santos-9780367607104","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
