The Glass-House is a registered charity that supports and encourages better working partnerships between communities and professionals who are working together to improve the quality of a neighbourhood. The Glass-House works nationally, offering design advice, training and project support to projects focusing on neighbourhoods, housing, public space, community buildings, play areas and facilities for young people.
The Glass-House supports a community led design process that ensures regeneration is happening with and for, not to local people.
Our objectives:
*Provide communities with the tools to lead the design process
*Give design, housing and regeneration professionals the tools to work more effectively with user groups on the design of regeneration projects that affect them
*Promote a wider understanding and practice of community led design
*Put design at the top of the agenda
