From vast termite mounds that outstrip our own skyscrapers, to elaborate birds nests, delicate shells, and deadly spiders' traps, the constructions of the animal world can amaze and at times humble our own engineering and technology. Hansell reveals the biology behind animal architecture.

The spider spinning its web in a dark corner; wasps building a nest under a roof: there is hardly any part of the built environment that can't be inhabited by nonhumans, and yet we are extremely selective as to which animals we allow in or keep out. This book considers many different animals, opening up new ways of thinking about architecture and the more-than-human. Looking closely at how animals produce spaces for themselves, Paul Dobraszczyk asks what we might require in order to design with animals and become more attuned to the other lifeforms that already use our structures. Animal Architecture is a provocative exploration of building in a world where humans and other animals are already entangled, whether we acknowledge it or not.

Jean Gascó est chargé de Recherche au Centre d’Anthropologie des Sociétés Rurales. E.R. 289 du C.N.R.S. Il étudie dans cet ouvrage les aménagements domestiques du Mésolithique, du Néolithique et de l’Age du Bronze fouillés aux abris de Font-Juvénal et du Roc-de-Dourgne dans l’Aude. A un moment où les structures d’habitat font l’objet en France d’une analyse détaillée, ce travail apporte une documentation abondante et des éléments de réflexion concernant la typologie, la fonction, les données culturelles, l’évolution et la terminologie de ces aménagements. L’auteur les répartit en quatre catégories : foyers à plat, trous de combustion, structures de maintien et structures de conservation. Cette recherche débouche sur une approche typologique des structures d’habitat de la Préhistoire en Languedoc méditerranéen et vient compléter, à la fois dans le temps et l’espace, des études qui avaient jusqu’alors concerné essentiellement le Paléolithique supérieur du nord de la France. In this paper, Jean Gascó (chargé de Recherche, Centre d’Anthropologie des Sociétés Rurales, E.R. 289 du C.N.R.S.) examines domestic structures which date from the Mesolithic, Neolithic and Bronze âge, excavated at the rock shelters of « Font-Juvénal » and « Roc-de-Dourgne » (Aude, France). Currently the study of such domestic structures is subject to detailed examination in France and has produced an abondance of material and elements to interpret concerning the typology, fonction, cultural data, evolution and typology of such structures. This research has lead to a typological approach of prehistoric domestic structures in Mediterranean Languedoc region and complements studies which have up to the moment concerned essentially the upper Paleolithic of northern France.
