Summary:
Prefab offers a glimpse into the history of prefabricated housing over the last century, revealing alternatives to the status quo. Arguably, these houses failed to capture the public imagination because of their emphasis on mass-production. Today, Arieff writes, prefabrication is embracing the concept of mass-individualization.

Summary:
Prefab offers a glimpse into the history of prefabricated housing over the last century, revealing alternatives to the status quo. Arguably, these houses failed to capture the public imagination because of their emphasis on mass-production. Today, Arieff writes, prefabrication is embracing the concept of mass-individualization. Instead of cookie-cutter homes designed for anonymous residents, the potential now exists for affordable, well-designed homes that utilize the positive aspects afforded by factory production while also addressing the needs of the individual. Prefab features the work of over 25 contemporary architects and designers who are exploring the myriad possibilities that prefabrication offers for housing for the future.

This is a collection of 19 interesting examples demonstrating countless architectural solutions available for houses with minimal space. Owing to their proportions - often related to the budget - minimal houses tend to be based on a light structural system, generally based on wooden frames or thin metal sections, which also make the building easy to construct on isolated(...)

This is a collection of 19 interesting examples demonstrating countless architectural solutions available for houses with minimal space. Owing to their proportions - often related to the budget - minimal houses tend to be based on a light structural system, generally based on wooden frames or thin metal sections, which also make the building easy to construct on isolated or inaccessible plots of land. These homes can hide ingenious elements inside, such as folding tables, hanging beds, translucent panels, and highly efficient storage areas. This collection of 19 new projects presents practical, contemporary examples that demonstrate the countless architectural solutions available for houses with minimal space.

One of Sweden’s most renowned contemporary architects, Johan Celsing has created a diverse body of work, from housing to public institutions, including museums, libraries, and churches. All of Celsing’s work is united by an intense and realistic engagement with the craft of building. This is the first book to date to comprehensively collect Celsing’s designs. It features both built and unrealized projects through working drawings and sketches, watercolors, models, and new photographs by London-based photographer Ioana Marinescu. In addition to some 660 illustrations, the Celsing’s work is discussed in essays by architects, educators, and critics Claes Caldenby and Wilfried Wang. A selection of Celsing’s own writings rounds out this monograph.

Topology optimization – a method widely applied in the aeronautical and automotive industries - may enable material reductions of up to 70 pct. in concrete structures, while generating novel, architectural forms. The realization of such complex structural morphologies however, calls for the development of new digital means of construction. The publication illustrates the development of new experimental, robotic production methods for the fabrication of novel architectural structures, and contextualizes the application of structural optimization as an architectural design strategy through historical examples, spanning from 18th century physics-based methods to contemporary building practices.

The publication brings together a collection of more than 300 photographs by Francisco Ascensão illustrating about 70 projects made by young architecture offices in Portugal."Today, it is nearly impossible to distinguish architectural schools or styles. Regional schools are homogenized by a universal system of education and references, temporal periodization is absorbed by the ‘contemporary’. In the book there is no claim about a certain tendency. The absence of captions is programmatic. Rather than competing for clients and attention the images show a culture of generosity and mutual curiosity, a culture of openness and collectivity, immediacy and care, optimism and liveliness. A new beginning." - Philip Ursprung, 2024
