ISAAC, Ken
How to Build your Own Living Structures

This publication is a full-scale reproduction of Ken Isaacs' 1974 book How to Build your Own Living Structures. It is accompanied by an essay by Susan Snodgrass, critic and teacher at the Art Institute of Chicago, who recontextualizes this emblematic work of the 1970s. A manual for creating various modular structures around the concept of the "matrix", it also provides an opportunity to immerse oneself in the philosophy of this pioneering architect, whose thinking in many respects resonates strongly with our own times.
