Description
Residential architecture is meant to be a private and personal space for individuals and their families. On the other hand, architecture is a manifestation of a society's culture, economy, and politics at a given time, and it has a "collective" or social aspect. Moreover, the "sociality" of residential architecture is even heavier when we consider that more than 70% of all structures worldwide are residential.
In this context, living spaces are not just for an individual and his family but also for a society, which must share social duties and responsibilities. Above all, it is urgent to change how we think about residential architecture to reduce global warming and environmental pollution and save natural resources and energy.
Let us think together about where, what kind of life pattern, and what kind of housing will satisfy our individual needs and contribute to our neighbors and the world.
