Date : 2013
Publication : Architecture in Motion: The history and development of portable building
Author : Robert Kronenburg
Publisher : Routledge

Summary : The idea that architecture can be portable is one that grabs the imagination of both designers and the people who use it, perhaps because it so often forecasts a dynamic and creative solution to the complex problems of our contemporary mobile society, while at the same time dealing with issues of practicality, economy and sustainability.

Mention : “The largest mobile building ever built is Valhalla, devised by engineer Rudi Enos in response to a commission to provide a building for millennium eve celebrations in Sheffield, UK.”
