"Experiences in Social Architecture" Publication Launched via Crowdfunding

A team of professionals from the Housing Company of the Federal District (CODHAB/DF) has launched a crowdfunding campaign for the publication series “Experiências em Arquitetura Social” (Experiences in Social Architecture). The books compile architecture and urban planning projects designed to improve the quality of housing design and construction in the Federal District.

Funding for the production and distribution of the books will be raised through the crowdfunding platform Catarse. Four different funding tiers are available, each with a specific contribution amount and publication theme. By choosing a tier, backers determine which volume they will receive.

The first funding tier starts at a minimum of R$ 150.00 and covers the themes of Technical Assistance and Management. This publication showcases the technical assistance projects developed by CODHAB from 2015 to 2018. Each set consists of two volumes; the second is the Management volume, which compiles initiatives and projects designed to address the housing deficit in the Federal District. 

The second option, also with a minimum pledge of R$ 150.00, focuses on the themes of Design Competitions and Management. The competition volume features various proposals developed specifically for 13 public competitions held between 2015 and 2018. 

For contributions of R$ 80.00 or more, the third tier covers Projects and Management. This publication presents a collection of architectural and urban planning projects designed to improve the quality of housing construction in the Federal District. 

The fourth funding tier offers a box set compiling all four volumes. To receive the box set, backers must pledge a minimum of R$ 290.00.

Pledges can be paid in up to six installments. In addition to the funding contribution, backers must also pay for shipping to receive the publications, which is R$ 25.00 for any state in Brazil. 

The Housing Development Company of the Federal District (CODHAB-DF) authorized the academic and public dissemination of the experiences and programs developed from 2015 to 2018. No public funds were used in the production of the publications.
