As a human that fancies minimalism when it comes to a home or dwelling, the method of Self Build Housing developed by architect Walter Segal (1907-1985) is quite appealing. Segal’s method involved lightweight timber structures built quickly and at an extreme low-cost.
…learning from engineers, [Segal] resolved that “every building I was going to make, I would calculate”
Walter Segal was brought up in the Swiss colony of Monte Verita, A location notably associated with Herman Hesse and Carl Jung, among others.
