Description

This monograph has the added distinction of focussing on an eminently important, social area of architecture: housing projected and built on a controlled cost basis. It tracks the introduction and development of SCC projects, their growth in scale, changes in design, their contribution to housing problems and the influencial work of Miguel Saraiva in this context. His lightness of touch, diversity of forms and solutions opposed the stereotypical image of social housing and in both aesthetic and market terms made SCC projects eagerly sought dwellings. The inclusion of thirteen recent works dating from 2002 - 2009 elegantly make the case for the wide and profound impact of Miguel Saraiva & Associates.
