Response: Wolfson Economic Prize

England desperately needs more homes. But our supply system is locked into a low output, low quality and high cost paradigm. Our New Garden City model transforms this dysfunctional system by delivering: 

• Pension funds supporting large scale house building.

• 1,000+ homes built out per year per site.

• A viable, large scale off-site residential construction industry.

• A small and medium house builder renaissance.

• Quality homes affordable to the builders and architects who create them.

• Substantial self-build contribution to supply.

• A self-funding mechanism for transport infrastructure upgrades.

• Local people having vested interests in supporting development.

• Community ownership of assets funding exemplary local services.

• Zero public finance for development.
