"This illustrated volume, written and edited by Philip Jodidio contains some of the most remarkable examples of homes on the move. Starting with totally revamped Airstream mobile homes, and going on to spectacular yachts like Philippe Starck's Motor Yacht A, this book doesn't stop moving, surveying the best in campers and tents, and even going on to private jets in the A319 or Boeing 737 category, veritable flying palaces for the privileged few."--

Face à la normalisation du mode de vie occidental, beaucoup sont séduits par une autre manière de vivre et privilégient le nomadisme à la sédentarité. Partir avec sa maison sur la route, vivre dans une roulotte, sur un bateau, dans un gonflable, construire son refuge dans les arbres, habiter au cœur même de la nature, ne sont plus aujourd'hui des rêves impossibles. Architectes, designers et constructeurs s'intéressent de près à ce phénomène et créent un nouveau type d'habitat mobile qui préfigure l'architecture du futur en proposant des solutions innovantes, en termes de miniaturisation, d'autoconstruction et de nouveaux matériaux. Maisons mobiles parcourt l'histoire de cette anarchitecture, des années 1930 à nos jours, des solutions d'urgence, liées à la guerre, aux projets visionnaires les plus audacieux, et interroge la démarche de leurs créateurs. Au fil de ce road-movie, on croisera vêtements refuges, maisons valises, villes volantes, flottantes ou sous-marines, sans oublier les multiples métamorphoses du camping-car et de la tente canadienne...
