Built By Hand

Built by Hand is a celebration of what is so uniquely diverse and yet similar in the buildings of different cultures around the world.

Beginning with the most basic ways that human beings have sought shelter-beneath the trees and stars, under the protection of a rock cliff or cave-this book traces the transformation of materials such as earth, stone, wood or bamboo into shelters that are both stationary and moveable.
