Greenhouses - Studies on Types

Greenhouses have traditionally been described in terms of oppositions: indoors and outdoors, productive and domestic, nature and technology. Historically, these established clichés have shaped our understanding of them as intermediate spaces with a highly ambivalent character. This publication considers greenhouses not as autonomous objects where architecture and climate intersect, but as relational structures. It examines not just their formal qualities but also their relationships with the domicile, the outdoor climate, the seasons, and their inhabitants. From case studies to a photo essay of interior spaces and architectural details, the greenhouse is revealed as much more.
