Abstract

The book Nature in the dwelling. Constructive traditions in wood and natural fibers, analyzes four examples of vernacular architecture: the huave and maya houses, the temazcal and La Petatera; representing a material and immaterial cultural heritage that our ancestors have left us; remaining until our days, even when there is a risk of losing it, as the constructive knowledge that gives it life is not always transmitted. It documents, analyzes and studies the constructive procedures of the aforementioned vernacular architecture, taking into account the contextual, cultural and physical conditions in which they are made, making a timely record of the traditional constructive knowledge of each.
