Contemporary housing typology is very poor. It does not cater for the variety of users, their requirements and purchasing power, and the changes they need. The history of architecture shows many examples of different kinds of housing typology, flexible dwellings and adaptable building systems based on local and new materials. Some countries are currently developing voluntary or spontaneous experiments aimed at changing and renewing the housing typology. This is the purpose of the prototype designed by Llorens & Soldevila: an experimental dwelling with a minimum floor area that is cheap, flexible and adaptable. Several modules are combined to build urban "inhabitable spaces" for people to whom conventional solutions are not suited.
