Material-Based Dwellings

Material-Based Dwellings

Material-based dwellings are homes distinguished by the principal materials used in their construction. Stone, bamboo, timber, brick, concrete, and earth-based dwellings express different relationships between visible texture, building assemblies, and place. The way each building uses its materials shapes its character, while durability and environmental performance depend on more than the material name alone.
