Description
"To think about shelter, we have to think about the microorganisms that invented interior space more than four billion years ago - and in so doing eventually made humans possible. We the Bacteria draws on the evolving field of microbiology to highlight the intimate connection between the microbes that constitute us and the last ten thousand years of architecture. Treating bacteria as the real architects and inhabitants to the built environment, Beatriz Colomina and Mark Wigley present an urgent manifesto for an alternative architectural paradigm that decenters the human."
