SUMMARY:Transforming Houses in Southeast Asia: New Materials, Aspirations and Change
LOCATION:Room 3.10
DESCRIPTION:Southeast Asia’s diverse built landscape has ranged prominent i
 n the scholarly, most notably anthropological, studies of houses (Carsten a
 nd Hugh-Jones 1995; Sparkes and Howell 2003; Waterson 2009 [1990]). Indeed,
  houses are more than mere architecture in Southeast Asia are multi-faceted
  entities and have been studied in various relevant dimensions – including 
 their cosmological aspect (Cunningham 1964), their role in shaping and enab
 ling sociality and relatedness (Allerton 2013, Carsten 1997), their becomin
 g remade as cultural heritage (Allerton 2003, Berliner 2012), or the aesthe
 tic  politics engrained in their design (Elinoff 2016) to name but a few th
 emes. What received less attention, though, is the transformation of housin
 g that is occurring all over Southeast Asia – albeit to varying degrees and
  at different paces. Concrete is certainly on the rise in Southeast Asia – 
 not only for huge infrastructure projects but also for ordinary houses, the
 reby changing the design and our understandings of vernacular architecture 
 in the region. How does transformation of houses occur? How are new materia
 ls, emerging aspirations and changing relations implied in and/or contribut
 ing to these transformations? \n\nThis panel will address these questions s
 ystematically and based on empirical material related to Southeast Asia. Th
 e contributors are invited to engage with the topic from a diverse set of a
 ngles. Thus, emphasis may be given to kinship, the experience of space, to 
 the political context, materiality, narratives of development, socio-econom
 ic change among other possible topics immediately connected to house transf
 ormations occurring in urban and, especially, rural Southeast Asia.
