Dezeen In Depth investigates the fate of UK social-housing estates

This month's Dezeen In Depth newsletter features a piece on the regeneration of social housing estates and an interview with Dune: Part Two production designer Patrice Vermette.

The latest piece in our Social Housing Revival series explores the tough challenges that UK councils face in addressing the urgent housing crisis.

The redevelopment of social housing estates, involving the demolition of existing properties and their replacement with new housing, has stirred controversy in Britain due to its tendency to decrease the availability of homes designated for social rent.

December's Dezeen in Depth also featured an interview with production designer Patrice Vermette on his set design for the film Dune: Part Two and an opinion piece by Edwin Heathcote on "urbicide" taking place in Gaza.
