Urban Pamphleteer #11 Launch: Multi-stories

Join UCL Urban Laboratory for the public launch of Urban Pamphleteer #11: Multi-stories: Estate Interventions in London and Paris. 

This issue documents and explores experimental interventions in the way the everyday life of multi-storey social housing in London and Paris is represented and understood. Interspersing contributions from Paris and London, the issue foregrounds approaches that develop intersections across visual, ethnographic and historical methods. Forged across personal, institutional and academic contexts, stories and experiences, the pamphleteer’s contributions seek to intervene in direct and specific ways with the marginalisation of these important locations for everyday urban life.

Edited by Martine Drozdz, Andrew Harris and Nathaniel Télémaque. Designed by Guglielmo Rossi.

Contributors include: Cloe Korman, Renaud Epstein, David Roberts, Nabil Al-Kinani, Wendy Huynh, Nathaniel Télémaque, Patrizia Di Fiore, Tom Wolseley, Hortense Soichet, Clarrie & Blanche Pope, Aristide Barraud, AMULOP, Fight4Aylsebury, Elise Havard dit Duclos, Fatima Idrissi, Philippe Urvoy and Stephen Willats

The event will launch the new pamphleteer and offer opportunities for discussion while enjoying refreshments and the view across London within UCL's brand new facility, Marshgate at UCL East. 

Urban Pamphleteer is a series of publications that confront key contemporary urban questions from diverse perspectives. Written in a direct and accessible tone, these pamphlets draw on the history of radical pamphleteering as a tool for instigating change.

Urban Pamphleteer #11 has been produced with support from Labex Futurs Urbains and UCL’s Cities Partnership Programme.
