How to Build a House for $6000


Time machine to 1957 not included
Another great book from our friends over at DigModern. Written in 1957 by Norman Cherner, this book explores small component housing from the 1950's.
An excellent look at small, modernist component built houses by the architect Norman Cherner. Divided into chapters as follows: Plans and intro, Panel Construction, Bent Construction, Girder Construction, Masonary and Foundation Construction, Quonset Construction, Materials and Methods. Excellent isometric drawings and details by the architect. Also sections, elevations, and floor plans. Black and white photos of homes under construction and finished.
