HOUSE. AMERICAN HOUSES FOR THE NEW CENTURY. /HB/

The houses in this book represent new ideas about how to build houses, how they are rooted (and root us), and how we use and regard them. The first chapter, ‘Tectonics’, features novel applications of materials and building techniques. Next, ‘Context’ showcases houses that actively engage in their site, drawing inspiration, in texture, form, or topography, from their surroundings. Lastly, ‘Revolutions’ addresses the significant shifts our lifestyles have undergone and how the house has responded to them.
