7 SPACES - 7 ARCHITECTS - V&A London

I absolutely LOVED this ex. . There seems to be a  very exciting current art trend -  especially in architecture -  were we are rediscovering, re-eiventing creative sustainable living inspired on the beauty of discovering "what is enough": houses no longer to be homages to luxury or status, but instead to be rescaled, re-thinked, re-sized to the idea of "we only need enough"  in space. That leading us to the idea of a house being or returning to the state of a true shelter : not only phsicical, but as showed clearly at this ex. a creative, emotional and even spiritual shelter: NOT a HOUSE, a HOME.

A HOUSE,  a HOME, a SHELTER: what is that we really need to feel at home (?) what do we need from a inner space to feel at home physically, intellectually and emotionally (?) This are surely the questions ARCHITECTURE must start to ask asap.
