Summary:[...]an architect from Steven Winter Associates offers lessons on what constitutes innovative design. [...]we started with our country's roots in affordable housing and, after reviewing the trajectory of public housing the United States, we found a general absence or undervaluation of social capital within affordable housing communities and also the lack of integration into the larger community. [...]the building of social capital became central to our understanding of innovation along with the integration of timely, localized opportunities available in Santa Barbara, such as those tied to learning and low-impact design.
