Created for students and professionals to inspire changes in how new buildings are designed and constructed, the program challenges participants to design a self-sufficient and ecologically oriented dwelling. In the early 20th Century, the concept of ?dwelling? was defined as a ?machine for living?, a reference to a new way of understanding the construction of inhabitable spaces that characterized the Machine Age. Today, a century later, we face the challenge of constructing a sustainable or even self-sufficient dwelling, now a living organism that interacts with its environment, exchanging resources, and which functions as an entirely self-sufficient entity. The Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia publishes here a selection of entries presented during the 1st Advanced Architecture Contest: Self-Sufficient Housing.
