Very fascinating book illustrated the evolution of ideas on the use of living space. Evidence that human creativity has no limit on how to occupy his Lebensraum, living it every day, decorate, heat, ventilate, integrate in rural or urban environment, open or close it, rethink interior and exterior, combine various materials - wood, glass, metal, stone, brick, concrete, steel - entangling the most obvious feature in the wildest artistic, gigantism minimalism , respect of nature to the artificiality of the agglomerations, the cold industrial abstraction built into the human light regionalism. Space is constantly redefined by man, elemental cube to the Byzantine palace in a proliferation of theories up to deconstructionism (semantic height, by the way, when it comes to architecture ...) . It will always ask to future generations! 'Draw me a house' which will be constantly reinvented as demonstrated this book.
