SMALL INTERIORS
HOUSES OF ASIA
As Asian cities become more densely populated, dwelling spaces become increasingly smaller and, in some cities an entire apartment may be the size of a single room. The homes featured in this artfully photographed volume may be restricted in square footage, but unlimited in terms of innovation. One apartment, for example, features an efficient arrangement of kitchenette, bathroom, and laundry areas in a space dominated by white, transparent materials for an airy effect.
PREFAB HOUSES
This book shows around 25 international houses that are based on modular and prefabrication systems. All of them have ecological advantages in comparison to standard construction systems, since they represent a more effective use of resources and a reduction of construction time and there with costs. All houses are built in factories, carried by road and assembled on site. Thus, building materials can be used more economically and very few refuse is produced during construction. Due to the actual spread of technologies and construction typologies, the international prefabrication industry can deliver up-to-date houses, aesthetically modern, and with an average rank of prizes from very cheap solutions to more exclusive ones, depending on the main material used.
