The #riba #stirlingPrize has been awarded to a housing project designed to combat loneliness. The building looks amazing, and I'm sure it'll be great.
But.
I'm fucked if, in _my_ twilight years, I would want to live with a bunch of old people.

It’s all the more odd considering #RIBA has been vocal in recent years in its commitment to addressing #ClimateChange and promoting low-carbon, sustainable design.
The RIBA 2030 Climate Challenge explicitly acknowledges the urgent need for reducing carbon emissions and improving air quality through sustainable building practices.
Furthermore, RIBA’s Climate Change Action Plan calls on #architects to prioritise clean energy sources that do not contribute to harmful #AirPollution.

It’s sad to see that #RIBA have decided to give a project multiple awards despite the fact it includes not one, but two polluting wood burning stoves.
Confusingly they boast:
‘A single air-source heat pump also provides all the house requires for heating and washing, with bills a fraction of typical running costs.’
