HOUSING MOVES ON

Description

The book discusses luxurious individual projects, temporary housing and the challenges posed by the dissolution of traditional social maxims of ‘social housing’.
Peter Ebner compiled residential projects by 26 internationally acclaimed architects including the work of Kengo Kuma, Kazujo Sejima, Francis Soler, Christian Sumi, Helena Paver Njiric etc.
The range of discussed projects is large and specifically focuses on comparing the diverse aspects of residential living. Exclusiveness is not solely the right of the high society, and economy is no longer an issue limited to social housing construction.
Each project is presented with a short description, scaled planning drafts (1:200 and 1:500) and numerous illustrations.
