Summary:
Surprisingly, many of the movable houses of today echo history's earliest and most rudimentary shelters. Some reveal an unprecedented demand for luxury and comfort while others reflect a desire to lessen man's impact on the earth. Cleverly juxtaposing the old and the new, countless photographs of mobile homes, transformable fashions, custom vehicles.

Summary:
In American popular imagination, the mobile home evokes images of cramped interiors, cheap materials, and occupants too poor or unsavory to live anywhere else. Since the 1940s and '50s, however, mobile home manufacturers have improved standards of construction and now present them as an affordable alternative to conventional site-built homes.

Summary:
In American popular imagination, the mobile home evokes images of cramped interiors, cheap materials, and occupants too poor or unsavory to live anywhere else. Since the 1940s and '50s, however, mobile home manufacturers have improved standards of construction and now present them as an affordable alternative to conventional site-built homes. Today one of every fourteen Americans lives in a mobile home. In "The Unknown World of the Mobile Home" authors John Fraser Hart, Michelle J. Rhodes, and John T. Morgan illuminate the history and culture of these often misunderstood domiciles. They describe early mobile homes, which were trailers designed to be pulled behind automobiles and which were more often than not poorly constructed and unequal to the needs of those who used them. During the 1970s, however, Congress enacted federal standards for the quality and safety of mobile homes, which led to innovation in design and the production of much more attractive and durable models. These models now comply with local building codes and many are designed to look like conventional houses. As a result, one out every five new single-family housing units purchased in the United States is a mobile home, sited everywhere from the conventional trailer park to custom-designed "estates" aimed at young couples and retirees. Despite all these changes in manufacture and design, even the most immobile mobile homes are still sold, financed, regulated, and taxed as vehicles. With a wealth of detail and illustrations, "The Unknown World of the Mobile Home" provides readers with an in-depth look into this variation on the American dream.

With a brief look back at mobile structures of old—the first being Noah’s Ark—Jennifer Siegel of Mobile Design in LA, brings together the works of a variety of artists and architects who design and construct portable, demountable, and mobile structures. This book includes work by Office of Mobile Design, LOT/EK, Vito Acconci, Doug Jackson/LARGE, Mark Fisher, Michael Fox, FTL Happold, Axel Thallemer, and Lawrence Scarpa. In beautiful color images, detailed drawings, and thoughtful text, the contributors reveal their working methods. Projects include: a portable island; a conventional car that is turned into a mobile hotel that can be delivered wherever it is needed; a microenvironment of a house that attaches to your body; an entiroe mobile community whose living units plug into a framwork of flexible communal space; Pink Floyd’s The Wall stage set and lots more. The book is introduced by Andrei Codrescu, well-known NPR commentator and author.

Hailey describes camps of diverse regions, purposes, and forms, and navigates the inherent paradoxes of zones that are neither temporary nor permanent: camps of choice, including summer camps, protest camps, drift camps (research stations on Arctic ice floes), and LTVA (Long-Term Visitor Area) camps; strategic camps regulated by power - boot camps, GTMO, immigrant camps, and others. Including more than 150 diagrams, sketches, building and site plans, photographs, video game screenshots, aerial and satellite images, and maps.

Certains territoires comme Singapour, Hong Kong, Macao, Monaco, Dubaï, Abu Dhabi, Koweit sont confrontés à la double pression de la démographie et du développement économique.

Les premières maisons flottantes invitent les Néerlandais à vivre sur l'eau, avec l'eau, au lieu de chercher à repousser constamment les flots. Terres émergées/Terres immergées...
