0/5 ( ratings)

How can we creatively construct and inhabit our environments in an age of environmental crisis and economic downturn? "Living" adopts an anthropological perspective on contemporary models of dwelling, moving freely across disciplines and undertaking several case studies to look at architectural works alongside art works and installations. "Living" demonstrates the extraordinary variety of contemporary living circumstances, from tiny homes for individuals to large-scale collective habitats; from tree houses to community centers; from small apartments to massive market halls. Full of ingenious solutions and novel architectural ideas, "Living" includes works by Arne Quinze, Sou Fujimoto Architects, Bjarke Ingels Group, Bart Goldhoorn, Rintala Eggertsson Architects, T.A.M.A. and Hirsch & Muller, as well as texts by the German philosopher Peter Sloterdijk, economist and philosopher Yann Moulier-Boutang, "Domus" editor Joseph Grima, anthropologist Mark Vacher and poet Morten Sondergaard.
