The materials used in the construction of single-family residences are increasingly important and on many occasions become the focal point of the construction. Advances in the composition, fabrication and application of materials allows for the creation of structures and forms that were unthinkable just a few decades ago. This volume contains chapters that display residences constructed using materials like metal, glass, wood, stone or concrete. The singularity of these homes is marked by the predominant use of one material, which in turn is linked with the original concept of the house.

Summary:
Residential design provides a rich testing ground for architectural innovation. Intimate scales and specific programs inspire distinctive homes, and comparatively small budgets are catalysts for exploring nontraditional materials. Modern Shoestring proves that building a contemporary house can be affordable and shows how constraints actually stimulate the most creative design solutions. Eighteen residential projects are presented, with emphasis on the goals of the owners, the site, and the cost in the design process. Collections determine floor plans, observatories are built for starry rural nights, and found and industrial materials such as highway construction remnants, laboratory counters, plastic water bottles, and discarded chalkboards keep costs low while imbuing structures with character. These ingenious designs range in cost from $50 to $220 per square foot and represent geographical settings from Los Angeles to Anchorage to East Hampton.

Vivre sous les toits suppose de jouir d'un lieu privilégié. La popularisation de l'ascenseur, apparu au milieu du XIXème siècle, a entraîné une évolution des priorités dans le choix d'une demeure. Disparu l'effort physique nécessaire pour atteindre le dernier étage, les mansardes changèrent de statut pour se convertir en logements les plus convoités. Sous les toits, le point de vue sur la ville se transforme: il devient possible de la contempler depuis les hauteurs, de la ressentir et de la vivre d'une manière différente à celle de nos déambulations dans ses rues. Ces constructions permettent de profiter de beaucoup de lumière et de superbes panoramas. En outre, très souvent, les appartements sous les toits comportent des terrasses ou autres espaces extérieurs source de valeur ajoutée. Cette sélection expose quelques logements actuels et novateurs, s'harmonisant avec la personnalité de leurs habitants et pensés pour tirer le parti maximum de leurs caractéristiques spéciales.

Summary:
Jadric examines the evolving concept of family in contemporary society, emphasizing that it extends beyond traditional nuclear units to encompass broader communities such as neighborhoods, co-living arrangements, and working groups. These diverse forms of "family" have increasingly adopted the characteristics of closely-knit, mutually supportive social groups, providing solace and resilience during challenging times. Through the lens of three distinct projects, Jadric illustrates the diverse rhythms of life experienced by different families navigating the balance between privacy and public engagement. Each project represents a unique interpretation of adaptive living spaces, offering a spectrum of possibilities for self-determination and fulfillment. "Intimate spaces" serves as a thought-provoking resource for architects, urban planners, policymakers, and anyone interested in reimagining the way we live in an ever-changing world. It offers insights into the profound impact of the built environment on our daily lives and emphasizes the potential of innovative design solutions to enhance our collective resilience and quality of life.
