Richard Horden's Micro Architecture

I have a copy of Richard Horden's Micro Architecture (2008) in front of me - it is well worth looking at if you have an interest in the minimum, micro, XS, high-tech, prefabricated, simple, architecture. He is a insightful and thoughtful speaker if you get the opportunity to listen to a lecture. Also, his work with Horden Cherry Lee, the micro-compact home (m-ch) has been recently on view at the Museum of Modern Art, New York - in the "Home Delivery" exhibition.

Of most interest is his work with Munich architecture students (TUM) - most of his published projects being collaborations between his practice and the academic studio - providing an exemplar for the design-build course and the resulting innovative outcomes.

Similarly, many of the five outdoor projects at the MoMA exhibition were the result of collaborations between academia and practice - thought-provoking innovative experimental prototypes. See www.momahomedelivery.org
