It may come as no surprise that only two per cent of new home buyers work directly with an architect to design the space in which they will live – indeed, architects are usually seen as a luxury most of us, the other 98 per cent, can’t afford. In this book, architecture firms, community design centers, design/build programs, and service-based organizations offer plans for buildings for the other 98 per cent. Twenty-eight essays and case studies illustrate successes and failures and raise both design and social issues. The success of Rural Studio suggests that there is a large and growing number of people who would like to see good design for all. With its clear, direct, and inspiring message, and numerous illustrated examples, Good Deeds, Good Design follows this important story.
