How to Build a House presents the far-reaching transformations affecting the way we build?—?and the social, economic, and ecological logic of how we make things. A visual journey through research on the digital transformation of architecture and construction, this book reveals the conception and making of the DFAB HOUSE, a three-story experimental building that manifests pioneering research in computational design and digital fabrication.
