Characterising Brazilian Housing through an Investigation of Policies, Architecture and Statistics (2021)
Journal Article
Tubelo, R., Rodrigues, L., & Gillott, M. (2021). Characterising Brazilian Housing through an Investigation of Policies, Architecture and Statistics. Journal of Architecture, 26(2), 191-211. https://doi.org/10.1080/13602365.2021.1895279

Defining common housing characteristics such as typology, floor areas and occupancy rates can be challenging in many countries because of the prevalence of self-built and/or self-promoted accommodation. Yet, for researchers, designers and policy make... Read More about Characterising Brazilian Housing through an Investigation of Policies, Architecture and Statistics.

Comfort within budget: Assessing the cost-effectiveness of envelope improvements in single-family affordable housing (2021)
Journal Article
Tubelo, R., Rodrigues, L., Gillott, M., & Zune, M. (2021). Comfort within budget: Assessing the cost-effectiveness of envelope improvements in single-family affordable housing. Sustainability, 13(6), Article 3054. https://doi.org/10.3390/su13063054

In Brazil, the delivery of homes for low-income households is dictated by costs rather than performance. Issues such as the impact of climate change, affordability of operational energy use, and lack of energy security are not taken into account, eve...
