The Mountford Estate Community Hall is a project led by local community leaders and architect Sahra Hersi to rebuild the estate’s hall through co-creation workshops with young residents. More than a building, it’s a model of inclusive space-making that centres marginalised voices.

The book documents this design journey while raising funds for the new hall. Its design draws on local architectural plans, with a chapter system of shapes (instead of numbers) to represent the roles people play in a community. Hole punches hint at future iterations, signalling the start of a series.
