This second edition of Designed for Habitat presents twelve new
projects designed and built by architects and Habitat for Humanity.
The ways in which we think about affordable housing are being
challenged by designers and not-for-profit housing advocates such
as Habitat for Humanity and its affiliates. The projects chronicled
in this book consider home affordability through the lens of
monthly homeownership expenses, energy efficiency and residential
energy use, and issues of designed resilience to natural events
ranging from aging and accessibility concerns to natural disasters
and climate change. New to this edition, the projects are grouped
by Scale, Construction Technology, Energy & Affordability, and
Design & Context. Illustrated with over 100 color images, the
case studies include detailed plans and photographs to show how
these projects came about, the strategies used by each team to
approach the design and construction process, and the obstacles
they overcame to realize a successful outcome. The lessons and
insights presented will be a valuable resource, whether you're an
architect, architecture student, Habitat affiliate leader, or an
affordable housing advocate.
