Description
Summary:Palacios comunales atemporales presents an exciting chronological journey through visionary projects built throughout history that proposed alternative residential solutions to traditional ways of life. From the monasteries of the hermits and cenobites of the 4th century to contemporary buildings such as Ricardo Bofill's Walden 7, via Jean-Baptiste André Godin's Familisterie de Guise or Ralph Erskine's project for an ecological arctic city, the volume brings together a total of sixty "architectural experiences" which, in the author's opinion, were built as "redoubts on the fringes" of "the existential and economic structures" of their time. Palacios comunales atemporales presenta un apasionante recorrido cronológico por proyectos visionarios construidos a lo largo de la historia que propusieron soluciones residenciales alternativas a los modos de vida tradicionales. Desde los monasterios de los eremitas y cenobitas del siglo iv, hasta edificios contemporáneos como el Walden 7 de Ricardo Bofill, pasando por el Familisterio de Guise de Jean–Baptiste André Godin o el proyecto para una ciudad ártica ecológica de Ralph Erskine, el volumen recoge un total de sesenta “experiencias arquitectónicas” que, a juicio del autor, se levantaron como “reductos al margen” de “las estructuras existenciales y económicas” de su época.
