Description: First volume of a collection of five books - to be published later by ediFAUA - that will focus on the history of Peruvian architecture. The first volume is centered on popular architecture with the authorship of the architect, researcher and teacher FAUA Jorge Burga Bartra and specialist in the subject presents a panoramic view of the different regional expressions of the popular vernacular architecture and contemporary urban versions of the popular as well as the proposals generated by contemporary professional architects that observe, study with rigor and are inspired by the popular edilicia. The author dedicates one chapter to the Chicha architectureʺ (named after the Incan ceremonial drink made with fermented corn), low cost and artisan constructed buildings, very popular in Peru. "This book is illustrated with the great artistic-graphic capacity that characterizes the architect Burga. His drawings, to which are added photographs and plans, are representations, like all drawing, but above all they are an analysis of formal-constructive character." (HKB Translation) --Page 13.
