Abstract

During recent decades, the attempt to design minimal spaces has become a challenge for architects. This phenomenon is first and foremost a reflection of a society that is liquid, as the philosopher Bauman describes it. Therefore, the meaning of the home and its use today have completely changed compared to the past. Within this context, the Italian law defining minimum standards for living spaces has still not been updated since the 1970s. The contribution invites a reflection on the new possibilities that minimum dwelling offers to contemporary society.
