Vernacular architecture across the world
▻http://www.naturalhomes.org/vernacular.htm
Once upon a time, #architecture did not need architects. The construction was based on tradition and community knowledge rather than on the know-how of one unique specialist. The alpine chalet or a bamboo home from South-East Asia are just some examples of this “vernacular” architecture. Vernacular architecture evolves over time reflecting the characteristics of the local environment, climate, culture, natural materials, technology and the experience of centuries of community building.
