Lecture
Housing in the Bastides
Description
This lecture explores the architectural design of the Bastides, medieval towns organized in blocks with a continuous built front to the street. It delves into the division of plots, building proportions, and the evolution of the housing fabric over time, highlighting the unique features such as the narrow parcels, multi-functional ground floors, and the absence of party walls. The lecture also discusses how the Bastides' construction system allowed for individual customization while maintaining a cohesive urban structure, contributing to fire prevention and architectural longevity.
