Tomorrow’s Home: Pandemic-era social trends and their impact on the built environment

Launched 21st November 2022

Tomorrow’s Homes: pandemic-era social trends and their impact on the built environment is a new report published this week and commissioned jointly by architect and masterplanner ADAM Architecture, and landowner and property developer Blenheim Estate Homes.

The publication draws on data from a wide range of research papers and reports, the majority published in the last three years, covering areas including housing, health and wellbeing, transport and residential and commercial property.

Tomorrow’s Homes clearly demonstrates what will be required to fulfil our future housing requirements in terms of both what we want and what we need to live.

It also draws conclusions about our expectations for the amenity and infrastructure of our towns and cities for a healthy lifestyle for both work and recreation, and how factors such as changing working practices, car use and the climate emergency may mean that radical change is needed in the way we plan our future towns and how we adapt existing conurbations to meet future needs.

This research builds upon our 2014 publication Tomorrow’s Home: Emerging social trends & their impact on the built environment
