Full Description
In 1998 Peripheriques edited the book "36 Propositions for a Home". The projects came from an international competition to design low-priced single-family houses. Since the book's publication, some of the competition entries have been built and in this subsequent volume, the realization of these and similar houses that were designed in the same spirit, has been documented. Low in cost and commissioned by ordinary people, these buildings are nevertheless important examples of contemporary residential forms, where creative use is made of prefabricated materials; buildings and surroundings are integrated in an individual way; and the feeling of spaciousness is emphasized. Examples from Abalos y Herreros, Atelier Bow-wow, Gallart, Lacaton-Vassal, Lacoste-Stevenson, Marin-Trottin, MVRDV, 2M2N, Paillard-Jumeau, Ricciotti and Tezuka-Tezuka are included and text contributions analyse the basic principles of low cost building.
