Telescoping houses show us that buildings aren’t frozen in time. Each addition, each shift, is a record of a family adapting, a physical memory of change. Stewart Brand taught us that buildings learn. But it’s not just buildings. Neighborhoods and cities do too. When we allow them to evolve (one room, one house, one block at a time) we make places that can grow wiser, not just older. #architecture #housing #cityplanning #irbanism #charleston
