The living environments of hundreds of African ethnic groups offer a variety of ideas and construction practices which contradict the over-played image of primitive huts that have come to represent rural Africa. The cultural dimension and its application using different architectural practices are fantastically illustrated in this work, with examples taken from the habitats of differentethnic groups of south and west Africa.
