Symmetry has always been a source of obsession in architecture. In Ancient Greece, the
Roman Empire, and later during the Renaissance, symmetry was used as a way to find true
beauty, while in the early Modern movement its eradication was an essential part of
breaking with history.

Without a doubt there is something beautiful in symmetry, and popular Instagram accounts
like @symmetricalmonsterscollect photos that best capture symmetry in the architecture of
everyday life.

Playing the Housing Game for Profit: the British


Volume Housebuilding Project

Typical British suburban volume housing. Image Jason Hawkes

In his essay "Figures, Doors and Passages", the architectural historian Robin Evans
described how"it is difficult to see in the conventional layout of a contemporary house
anything but the crystallization of cold reason. Because of this," he asserted, "we are easily
led into thinking that a commodity so transparently unexceptional must have been wrought
directly from the stuff of basic human needs." His words, which highlight the passive
approachof designers, developers and dwellers when it comes to thevast majorityof
Britishhousing being built today,were first published in 1978 two years before the
Conservative government under Margaret Thatcher introduced the 1980 Housing Act.

The Failures of Winnipeg's Center Village Project

Brittain Photography

The challenges of designing social housing are complex. As Martha Thornerecently toldthe
Guardian, "Its not enough to make community space and say, People are going to see
each other... Architects really have to understand the context from the client the cultural
context, to the bigger context, to the economics, to the future of the residents wholl live
there. Speaking about Winnipeg'swell intentioned Centre Village project designed by
5468796 Architecture, Thorne believes many of these challenges are new to architects.

Just five years old, Center Village was designed as a community-oriented micro village for
25 families in one of Canada's poorest urban areas. Since its establishment, the complex
has become a hot bed for crime; courtyards are being used by vagrants as shelter from
police, while large families try to make a life within the cramp quarters of each home.
