An architectural fiction book about a radical condominium of dysfunctional houses.

# Social

PALAVRACIDADE is a Brazilian book that proposes a dialogue of creation between two distinct languages - the literary and the architectural one.

The book presents a dystopic fiction where a city of words and texts is demolished, giving rise to a radical condominium of dysfunctional houses:

01. Casa-Corredor (Hall-House)
02. Casa-Elevador (Elevator-House)
03. Casa-Casulo (Cocoon-House)
04. Casa-Emparedamento (Walling-House)
05. Casa-Labirinto (Labyrinth-House)
06. Casa-Bunker (Bunker-House)

Mirroring problematic states of contemporaneity, these houses reflect symptoms of the human being taken to the extreme - fragmentation and loss of individuality, bewilderment and fear, insecurity and uncertainty.
