Connecting the Dots between Architecture and Real Estate
Architecture and real estate often fail to recognize their inexorable connections. A new website draws out the themes linking the two fields.
"A new website, House Housing: An Untimely History of Architecture and Real Estate, from Columbia University’s Temple Hoyne Buell Center for the Study of American Architecture, hopes to help foreground the importance of real estate in the design, development, and construction of buildings," reports William Menking.
Although the website is only just beginning to build its archive, the potential of the site to make new, and recover forgotten, connections is apparent.
