"I really hate the word 'social' housing" says Annalie Riches

Architects are often wrongly blamed for past failures in social housing, Mikhail Riches co-founder Annalie Riches says in this Social Housing Revival interview.
Riches set out in her career to design great social housing, in a bid to challenge what she saw as a prevailing notion that architects "can't do housing".
However, she confesses to taking issue with the term "social housing" itself.
