Abstract

In Callous Objects: Designs Against the Homeless, Robert Rosenberger explores the growth of 'hostile architecture' and reflects on what it suggests about society’s attitudes towards the homelesss as well as our relationship with contemporary design. This short, vivid and novel book serves as a timely reminder that our public spaces are not experienced equally, writes Jon Dean.
