Ellen Dunham-Jones interviews her in this follow up to her lecture at GA Tech on her and David's new book, Nine Ways to Make Housing for People.(see the video on the Redesigning Cities website.) They discuss designing housing for people vs as a commodity, "small but mighty" interventions, how to determine what "better here"looks like, and some nerdy details of financing affordable housing that we all can expand on.
