| Popis: | In promoting urban consolidation, Australia’s strategic urban plans have the unintended consequence of reducing, if not eliminating, an individual household’s capacity to directly engage with new dwelling production. Contrasts exist between the production processes of a free-standing home, typically constructed to contract, and that of a multi-unit building,typically speculatively designed and sold off-the-plan. Hence, in providing a vision of higher density urban communities, Australia’s strategic urban plans arguably contribute to a disjunction between the function of higher-density dwellings and the individual households who seek to call them home. The paper suggests successful consolidation of the Australian Dream advocated by contemporary urban planning policies, requires that future residents be provided with greater capacity to influence multi-unit housing design. It draws on literature from a diversity of international jurisdictions to summarise the benefits realised by collectives of households developing housing for their own use. In particular, it shows collective self organised housing can support the objectives of plans promoting urban consolidation. Refereed/Peer-reviewed |
