Taking a walk through the themes of the exhibition with the same title showcased in the frame of Triennale 2010, this catalogue is simultaneously a reflection on the current conditions of living, the local specificities and contingencies of the practice of architecture. For the discussion, this catalogue includes a wide range of texts by several high profile experts such as José António Bandeirinha, Max Risselada, Pedro Pacheco and Luís Santiago Baptista, Manuel Graça Dias and Ana Vaz Milheiro, Peter Cook, Ákos Moravánsvky, Diogo Seixas Lopes or Vittorio Lampugnangi.
The publication also presents a set of interviews with personalities who shared their views on the theme of living, including José Gil, Nuno Portas, José Bragança de Miranda, Gonçalo M. Tavares and Filomena Silvano, in addition to an critical essay by the chief curator of the 2nd edition of Lisbon Triennale, Delfim Sardo. Widely documented with images and photographic series specifically commissioned, it is a reference work on the issue of contemporary living.
