Cabins Architektur Buch

Cabins – About the Cabin: Since Henry David Thoreau described his life at Walden Pond in Walden (1854), the idea of living in a cabin has fascinated people. Over the past ten years, architects worldwide have shown increasing interest in minimalist, resource-efficient retreats.

This Bibliotheca Universalis edition combines texts, photographs, and illustrations by Marie-Laure Cruschi, demonstrating how cabins foster creative thinking. They reduce space consumption to the essentials, respond to their surroundings, and focus on environmentally friendly solutions. Contributions from Renzo Piano, Terunobu Fujimori, Tom Kundig, and young architects present cabins as a stage for innovative architecture.

The book showcases cabins worldwide – from artist studios in England to sustainable dwellings in India – emphasizing architectural innovation and the inspiring feeling of contemplation and coexistence.

About the Author: Philip Jodidio studied art history and economics at Harvard, was editor of Connaissance des Arts for over 20 years, and has published numerous TASCHEN publications, including the Architecture Now! series and monographs on Norman Foster, Tadao Ando, Renzo Piano, Jean Nouvel, and Zaha Hadid.
