The award-winning Mexican architect analyses two centuries of evolution of the built element with the greatest impact on the planet: the house. Including 110 coloured illustrations. In this study, Fernanda Canales analyses the evolution of the house over the last two centuries through projects, exhibitions, and books. My House, Your City expands the meaning of house by dismantling three erroneous assumptions the house as a place of rest separate from work, the house as an object of private property and the house as a sanctuary for the nuclear family in favour of other formats of belonging, coexistence and use.
