Small Houses

Italian edition. A Small House is a tribute to the immense artistic inventiveness of architects and an innovative approach in the perception of familiar and well-known ideas. It is also a conscious turn towards sustainability and reducing environmental impact, as well as a bold challenge to change your lifestyle. At a time when humanity faces unavoidable pressures such as climate change, growing populations and declining resources, these solutions are helping to shape a vision of what the world might look like in the future.
The world of Small Houses can extend from the densely populated urban areas of Tokyo to the wild nature of Australia, from the forests of Canada to the roof of a building in Ecuador. The only feature that they all have in common is a surface area of ​​less than 100 m2. This book travels across 25 countries, including Brazil, Hungary, South Korea, the Netherlands, the United States, Japan and Australia, to illustrate homes designed by 57 architects, including Takeshi Hosaka's Love2 House, Aranza de Ariño's Casa Tiny and works by Jakub Szczesny, Charles Pictet, Lada Hršak, BIG and Fran Silvestre and many other projects. It is not only a journey through the latest developments in design and architectural creativity, but also a step towards a more sustainable world.
