The book aims to explore the transformations and uncertainties which shape contemporary living environments, to unveil critical concerns on the impact of such uncertain practices on both the design of living environments as well as on architectural education and on the profile of the future graduates and to foster an inquiry into potential responses in the form of policies, design, social innovation and community initiatives. The above will be explored through a reflection on the housing studio, aiming on one hand to address an apparent gap between the traditional housing studio and the complex, dynamic world and on the other, to trace and map attempts of housing studio practices to foster and embrace a culture of 'Inter-Actions' between the individual student and the team, between different disciplines, between academia, the profession and the community, and between global driving forces and local contexts.
