Description
Lloyd Kahn's Home Work: Handbuilt Shelter is a collection of remarkable buildings from around the world, showcasing the art of self-sufficiency and sustainable living. The book features stunning photo-essays and stories of innovative builders who have pushed the boundaries of traditional architecture. From a Japanese-style pole house in Northern California to a strawbale house in Oregon, and from a bottle house in the Nevada desert to a commune in the Tennessee mountains, this book celebrates the diversity of alternative building practices. With contributions from photographers Yoshio Komatsu and Kevin Kelly, and featuring buildings that were inspired by the authors' own work, Home Work is a unique and fascinating exploration of the world of handbuilt shelter. The book includes a wide range of structures, from log homes and yurts to cob houses and sculptural villages, all of which demonstrate a commitment to living off the land and building in harmony with the environment.
