Présentation de l'éditeur :
Through a process of urban interrogation and an attempt to make some sense of the city of Guadalajara in Mexico and the activities that shape it, this book examines examples of how fundamental elements of city life are shaped by the ad hoc, the contingent and the easily obtainable.
An academic exchange between the architectural schools of RMIT University, Melbourne and Escuela Superior de Arquitectura, Guadalajara provided reason to explore and present this collection of findings.
Houses built from waste materials, open urban systems, ‘piggybacking'- or parasitic relationships, the border between street activities and private spaces, itinerant relationships and urban appropriation are some of the case studies illustrated and documented here.
