Architects: Anna & Eugeni Bach Location: Pälölä farm, Nummi Pusula, Finland Collaborators: Uma and Rufus Bach Project Dates: July 20 - July 21, 2011 Work Site Dates: August 10 – August 24, 2011 Built Surface: 13,50 m2 Budget: 800 € Promoter/Owner: Uma and Rufus Bach Constructor: Self built (Anna & Eugeni Bach) Photographs: Tiia Ettala

Last summer, architects Anna & Eugeni Bach found themselves in a situation that many parents who are architects with children might be able to relate. Their children, after realizing their parents were architects, wondered why they hadn’t made a house for them. So they promised them they would build a house for them on their grandparents farm in Finland. And, of course, at the kids insistence, they fulfilled their promise. More images and architects’ description after the break.

Basic House / Martín Azúa

Basic House / Martín Azúa - Image 6 of 4
Martín Azúa 1999 / Photographs Daniel Riera

Barcelona designer Martín Azúa questions the idea of the private home with the Basic House – an inhabitable volume that is “foldable, inflatable and reversible”. The experimental prototype challenges the idea of homeownership, offering an alternative to the materialistic reality of today.
