Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Architecture for the Poor describes Hassan Fathy's plan for building the village of New Gourna, near Luxor, Egypt, without the use of more modern and expensive materials such as steel and concrete. Using mud bricks, the native technique that Fathy learned in Nubia, and such traditional Egyptian architectural designs as enclosed courtyards and vaulted roofing, Fathy worked with the villagers to tailor his designs to their needs. He taught them how to work with the bricks, supervised the erection of the buildings, and encouraged the revival of such ancient crafts as claustra (lattice designs in the mudwork) to adorn the buildings. This volume describes Hassan Fathy's plan for building the village of New Gourna, near Luxor, Egypt, without the use of more modern and expensive materials such as steel and concrete. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. "En Arquitectura para los pobres Hassan Fathy relata su propia experiencia en la concepción, planificación, diseño y construcción de Nuevo Gourna, una población en las afueras de El Cairo pensada para realojar a los pobladores de un antiguo asentamiento de excavadores arqueológicos. Este poblado de nueva creación fue la primera tentativa de Fathy de aplicar a gran escala su concepto de arquitectura social, convencido de que la arquitectura podía y debía crear entornos favorables al desarrollo del ser humano por encima de cualquier otro objetivo. Es, por tanto, el relato de unas grandes aspiraciones: el intento de mejorar la sociedad desde la arquitectura trabajando sobre la sostenibilidad ecológica, el uso de materiales y técnicas locales y la implicación de los habitantes en la construcción como medio de empoderamiento. Es también la historia de un relativo fracaso, achacable en cualquier caso no al arquitecto sino a la intrahistoria del proyecto: las trabas burocráticas, la falta de medios y la inercia vital de aquellos a los que se intentaba favorecer impidieron el éxito total, aunque ello en absoluto invalida unas ideas realmente valientes. Además de ser una apasionante y vívida crónica, el libro presenta esta experiencia como una actuación generalizable y, por lo tanto, de posible aplicación en situaciones similares. Francis Diebedó Kéré, cuyas actividades y actitudes corren paralelas a las de Fathy ha redactado unas líneas certeras como presentación. El sostenido interés de los medios especializados por ambos arquitectos demuestra que la vía hacia una arquitectura sostenible que Fathy abrió sigue teniendo plena vigencia, pues sus ideas fomentan una verdadera arquitectura de la dignidad" -- Publicaciones de Arquitectura y Arte. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
