Life As A House: A Manifesto For The New Iconic House, Ana Paola Hernandez Derbez, Domenica Velasco
Architecture Thesis Prep
The house, is one of the most fundamental architectural archetypes, has long been used as unbuilt or built manifestos to declare the avant garde of the discipline. As designers, we need to re-visualize design concepts to create architecture that integrates and corresponds to the way we dwell. Innovating design in the same way technology and digitalization have been innovating production and the way we live. This thesis investigates a return to the design of a house as a manifesto, focusing on today’s advanced modes of fabrication and evolving ways of living to challenge the current design mindset.

Architecture Thesis Prep
Upon completion of my research I will design a system that allows the
flexibility needed by the people as well as the control the government
and NGO’s are responsible for providing. I will focus on the way playing
with the relevant scale can help to bridge the gap between indi
vidual
and group. Special configuration is a key component in forming
communal spaces. The integration of these spaces on every scale is
fundamental to achieving success. Issues of permanence can be addressed
though alternative building methodologies, and the lessons
learned from indigenous people.
