ArchitectureWeek Description
This new volume in the In Detail series demonstrates the breadth and complexity of issues involved in building simply. In Detail: Building Simply covers the whole spectrum of simple building, from functional and economic demands, through ecological and energy-related aspects, to design and construction requirements. Building Simply describes a creative process that does justice to the nature of the materials used to create unique projects through an economy of means and resources. The project section documents a comprehensive range of international examples, from simple wooden bridges to pavilions, residential buildings, workshops and warehouses.
