In this book, Ayham Dalal takes a closer look at this remarkable transformation. He draws on the tension between 'the shelter' and 'the dwelling' to unravel how new spaces unfold in between them, where refugees become architects and the camp is dismantled and reassembled. From Shelters to Dwellings is the first study to uniquely combine ethnographic observations with new architectural research methods, to illustrate in detail how refugees inhabit shelters. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding how camps and shelters are transformed by the powerful act of dwelling.DwellingsSocial aspectsArchitectureCampsJordanSyriaRefugeesDwellingFleeingArchitectureSpaceUrban StudiesRefugee StudiesUrban PlanningGeographyDwellingsSocial aspects.Architecture.300Dalal Ayham1265259NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910591164403321From Shelters to Dwellings2967480UNINA
