The budget for a house project is no doubt one of the greatest difficulties encountered by both clients and architects. The houses presented in this volume step up to the challenge of reducing costs without affecting the quality of the final result.
Each example, the work of prestigious international architects, faces the challenge in a different manner, whether it be
economising on structural or material aspects, or investing in sustainable systems that provide a future compensation due to their energy-saving qualities.

The aim of 'Affordable Home Design' is to showcase a wide array of solutions to the same architectural challenge of good design and structure on a budget. The projects include extensions of houses and apartments already in existence, ecological housing design, sustainable and structurally cost effective homes, and new buildings in strictly coded conservation zones.

This book presents alternative projects, not only from the architectural point of view but also from the budget. This fact will give new ideas to the home owner interested in buying a first home, or simply remodeling their current one, architects facing new wishes from their first clients, or interior designers learning how to manage with a more reduced budget than the usual ones.

Readers generally interested in knowing the new trends in decoration and housing architecture will also feel attracted by these inspiring examples. Projects are defined as affordable in a sense related not only to the materials used during construction or remodeling, but also to the different furniture designs, finishes, sizes, electric appliances, and distribution of space.

Through a very interesting international showcase, this book tells today's architects how to adapt to the necessities of a more affordable budget when approaching the always exciting necessity of designing a home.
