In this book, Ayham Dalal takes a closer look at this remarkable transformation. He draws on the tension between 'the shelter' and 'the dwelling' to unravel how new spaces unfold in between them, where refugees become architects and the camp is dismantled and reassembled. From Shelters to Dwellings is the first study to uniquely combine ethnographic observations with new architectural research methods, to illustrate in detail how refugees inhabit shelters. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding how camps and shelters are transformed by the powerful act of dwelling.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: DEItem Height: 226mmItem Length: 147mmItem Width: 15mmItem Weight: 666gAuthor: Ayham DalalGenre: Architecture & AntiquesTopic: Social Sciences, Society & CultureType: EducationRelease Year: 2023 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
