Description:... 'Building for Life' is the industry standard, endorsed by Government, for well-designed homes and neighbourhoods that local communities, local authorities and developers are invited to use to stimulate conversations about creating good places to live. The 12 questions reflect our vision of what new housing developments should be: attractive, functional and sustainable places. Redesigned in 2012, this text is based on the new National Planning Policy Framework and the Government's commitment to build more homes, better homes and involve local communities in planning.
