Some build nests, some dig tunnels, others weave webs. Every living being gives free rein to its constructive instincts according to its nature. Humans, as terrestrial mammals, are no exception: in order to feel truly self-realized, they need to build themselves a home, be it a thatched hut, a luxurious mansion or an 80-story skyscraper. But how many, nowadays, can afford to do that? Alas, very few. This book offers a simple solution to solve this problem and regain one's creative spirit.

These are the topics covered:
Brick making
Concrete structures
Herringbone paving
Brick masonry
Brick staircase
Slate work
Round arches in brick and stone
Barrel and cross vaults with associated temporary structures
Stone and concrete pillars
Columns with spherocubic capitals
Railings with woven or cold-wrought iron wire
Simple or led wall torches
Project elaboration
Floor plans, studies and sections
Photo gallery of the architecture that inspired the project
