Anna Bach, professor of the degree in design, together with Eugeni Bach, present the book "More housing for less", in the collection ARQUIA / CONTEXTOS, of the editorial Catarata.
"There is an architecture that shows its ability to respond to social and cultural demands. Other people's bad reputation in construction and exaggerated estimates of certain" star architects ", a new architecture is adapted to the current context by offering simple solutions to complex cases . Because certain conditions (solar orientation, regulation, program, climate, etc.) define an architectural situation that can be resolved as usual or by obtaining a little more light, comfort, sustainability ... It is not an ethereal theory but four strategies as simple as practical: Use "what’s close" start with the "basics" and then perfect it, take advantage of "prefabrication" and apply "new systems" in construction. The utility is reflected in the book through twelve housing projects described by its own architects. All have been made in Spain for the past ten years and demonstrate that good architecture, that which is responsible, can bring more for less. "
