Where We Live by Adrian Bode, Andreas Linke, Michael Frey
Whether a treehouse or a cave, an igloo or a tent, a mansion or a castle, a skyscraper or a single-family house -- there are all sorts of individual homes. All human beings need a dwelling of some sort. But why is no one house exactly like another? Because the people who build and live in them are so different and have adapted to the needs of their environment. Let`s look at some of their homes! Where We Live shows how architecture has developed from its early beginnings right up to the present day. It shows the diversity of dwelling types, which were designed by people at different times and different places.
