With 30 examples, Small Agents – New Stories shows how lush urban environments and differentiated housing can be created in dialogue with the future residents of the buildings. It also shows that architecture can be created within an economically responsible framework – in certain circumstances, far cheaper than the speculative approaches that dominate today. And that citizens acting on their own behalf are far more ambitious about sustainability than those who formulate legislation.
