Sinopsis

¿Qué relación existe entre las maneras de vivir, las formas de proyectar y el pensamiento contemporáneo? ¿Cómo afectan las ideas al diseño de una casa? ¿Cómo transgreden a estas ideas las formas de habitarla? Este libro, un clásico de la refl exión arquitectónica, responde a estas y otras preguntas a través de siete modelos de vida del siglo XX, desde las casas patio de Mies van der Rohe a la cabaña refugio de Martin Heidegger, de la máquina de habitar de Jacques Tati a la Factory de Andy Warhol.

Veinte años después de su primera aparición, reeditamos con nuevo diseño y un nuevo prólogo del autor este ensayo de referencia en el que Iñaki Ábalos nos guía de casa en casa, con un estilo ameno y despojado de códigos y prejuicios profesionales, para construir un lúcido recorrido que niega la modernidad como experiencia triunfante del positivismo y recupera la pluralidad radical del siglo XX. Una invitación a celebrar la diversidad de las casas, estimular el placer de pensar, proyectar o habitar intensamente y, ante todo, impulsar una casa que aún no existe.
