The house has gone from being an individual matter to becoming the most impactful built element on the planet. In this study, Fernanda Canales analyzes the evolution of this space over the past two centuries through projects, exhibitions, and books that have transformed the ways of living towards a collective understanding of housing. This second edition of “My House, Your City” offers a journey through works that have attempted to solve all of life in a handful of square meters based on the challenge of the limits between the public and the private, in a story that reveals the vastness of the universe of the domestic, what is at stake when we imagine our own worlds that are also worlds for others. By dismantling three erroneous assumptions – the house as a place of rest separated from work, the house as an object of private property, and the house as a sanctuary for the nuclear family – this book expands the meaning of the word “house” in favor of other formats of belonging, coexistence, and use.
