Description

Book Synopsis

The prototypical recipe book provides a loose framework for BLDUS's unique farm-to-shelter architecture in Home on Earth, offering delectable suggestions for healthy modes of human habitation.

Using traditional materials processed with contemporary techniques, BLDUS designs and builds sustainable houses in and around Washington D.C. that pay tribute to their contexts and gain integrity as they age. Home on Earth showcases built houses alongside material studies and models to propose a healthy building cuisine specific to the Mid-Atlantic Region. These contextual houses are advocates for simple healthy building materials that work well in the Mid-Atlantic region and have low impacts on their points of growth, manufacture, installation, inhabitation, and eventual disposal.

Review Quotes

"Home on Earth may not have the same countercultural underpinning as, say, Ant Fram's famous Inflato-cookbook (1971), but its aim is clear: healthy, "farm-to-shelter" houses are easily within reach." --Architectural Record
