Résumé:
Bringing together essays and architectural projects that discuss housing as a key component in the social and urban development of the Ethiopian capital, which has undergone rapid changes over the past two decades – and led to disruptive consequences for the city’s physical and social fabric. Housing has been one of the key factors in this transformation, impacting job creation, craftsmanship, social and spatial equality, dwelling practices, and more. Presenting twelve projects developed by graduate students from TU Delft’s Global Housing educational programme, the book explores alternative approaches to housing design from the perspective of this urban revolution.

Résumé:
Chow offers an alternate vision to the conventional suburban housing that characterizes much of our domestic landscape. Her integrated, original approach to design sees the residential setting as a fabric of interrelated spaces that supports cultural diversity and change, promotes sharing in a setting, and sustains a more intense use of land.

Résumé:
Chow offers an alternate vision to the conventional suburban housing that characterizes much of our domestic landscape. Her integrated, original approach to design sees the residential setting as a fabric of interrelated spaces that supports cultural diversity and change, promotes sharing in a setting, and sustains a more intense use of land. With its concise, informative text and illustrations--including photographs and Chow's drawings--"Suburban space" challenges architects, landscape architects, developers, and planners to reconceptualize suburban housing. Chow has made comparative studies of neighborhoods in Boston, Charleston, San Francisco, Levittown, Radburn, and housing by Rudolf Schindler and Irving Gill, as well as other residential settings. Her argument for a fabric of dwelling is founded not on generalizations about how people live but on documented observations of the particular ways in which people organize their daily lives. This book demonstrates how one of the most disparaged yet common types of housing in the United States can become more environmentally and culturally viable.

Résumé:
"Dwelling: Five Years’ Work" on the Problem of the Habitation was the third of four groundbreaking works written by the Soviet modernist architect Moisei Ginzburg (1892-1946). Originally published in 1934, this facsimile edition is the first translation of the entire book into English, detailing Ginzburg’s work over a five-year period in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Starting with a broad survey of habitation in different cultures and traditions, Ginzburg elucidates the ways in which he and his colleagues tried to adapt and apply architectural solutions to the new demands of Soviet life. This includes a detailed analysis of the Narkomfin building in Moscow, now being restored by his grandson, the architect Alexey Ginzburg; a description of his work on the commune house; and the theories behind two major housing projects: Magnitogorya and Zeleny Gorod. The period covered by "Dwelling" represents the highpoint of Constructivism.

A love letter to Japan’s traditional, handmade wooden houses. In this book, author and modernist architectural historian Werner Blaser pays homage to the classical Japanese dwellings of the 15th to 18th centuries. These simple but elegant structures stand today as beacons of tranquility and craftsmanship in a fragmented, throw-away world. No religious shrines or martial castles here, just homes full of light, space and serenity that show how subtly man and nature can live together.

Résumé:
In ''Building and dwelling,'' Richard Sennett distils a lifetime's thinking and practical experience to explore the relationship between the good built environment and the good life. He argues for, and describes in rich detail, the idea of an open city, one in which people learn to manage complexity. He shows how the design of cities can enrich or diminish the everyday experience of those who dwell in them. The book ranges widely - from London, Paris and Barcelona to Shanghai, Mumbai and Medellin in Colombia - and draws on classic thinkers such as Tocqueville, Heidegger, Max Weber, and Walter Benjamin. It also draws on Sennett's many decades as a practical planner himself, testing what works, what doesn't, and why. He shows what works ethically is often the most practical solution for cities' problems.
