La Maison Contemporaine, architecture et modes de vie (Book) by Catherine Grandin-Maurin, Philippe Dufieux. Comme Neuf, 77 pages. Paperback. 2008. French language

Townhouses, suburban pavilions, villas in the countryside, the French craze for the individual house has continued to grow for 50 years to the point that this type of housing has become the most popular today. Nothing seems to change this collective aspiration even if less than 5% of houses built in France are built by architects. By crossing the perspectives of authors from different disciplines, this series of conferences offers an overview of the passion that the French have for the individual house.

In summary, the suburban posterity of Tony Garnier and the variations on the theme of the Industrial City by Philippe Dufieux, 10 houses of the 20th century by Richard Klein, the genesis of the prefabricated house by Lionel Engrand, the challenges of the ecological house by Jérôme Houyez as well as a look at the lifestyle in a single-family home by Guy Tapie.
