Summary:
The documentary film "What It Takes to Make A Home" (2020, conceived by Giovanna Borasi of the CCA and directed by Daniel Schwartz) follows a conversation between two architects whose work addresses homelessness. Michael Maltzan in Los Angeles and Alexander Hagner in Vienna have both designed long-term housing, exploring and embodying various strategies for social integration, mental health, and inclusive architectural-urban schemes. Questions on Dwelling screened the film in full and held a conversation at feldfünf Berlin with actors engaged in homelessness in Berlin. In that conversation, they tried to address the successes and failures of the film, architecture’s role and complicity in exacerbating the financialization of housing, the criminalization of urban space, and its entanglement with the privatization of the city. The transcript of that conversation was documented in this bilingual booklet.

Summary:
As the world’s population swells and the need for sustainable ways of living grows ever more urgent and obvious, prefabricated architecture has taken center stage. Even before our current predicaments, the mass-produced, factory-made home had a distinguished history, having served as a vital precept in the development of Modern architecture. Today, with the digital revolution reorganizing the relationship between drafting board and factory, it continues to spur innovative manufacturing and design, and its potential has clearly not yet come to fruition. Home Delivery traces the history of prefabrication in architecture, from its early roots in colonial cottages though the work of such figures as Jean Prouvé and Buckminster Fuller, and mass-produced variants such as the Lustron house, to a group of full-scale contemporary houses commissioned specifically for the MoMA exhibition that this book accompanies. In addition to an introductory essay by Barry Bergdoll, Chief Curator in the Museum’s Department of Architecture and Design, this volume contains essays on prefabricated housing in Japan and in Nordic countries by Ken Tadashi Oshima and Rasmus Waern, respectively. It also includes focused texts on approximately 40 historical projects and five commissions, as well as a bibliography.
