An Architecture of Hope by Yvonne Jewkes asks a quietly radical question at a time when many of us are rethinking the spaces we live in: can design help us heal.
This thoughtful hardback weaves together personal memoir and social critique as criminologist Yvonne Jewkes explores how architecture shapes behaviour, dignity and the possibility of renewal, drawing on her work as a global leader in rehabilitative prison design and her own experience of starting again when life unravels.
It is a compelling read for anyone interested in architecture, social justice or the simple human need for spaces that hold us with care, offering a new way to think about buildings as agents of hope rather than control.
