Abstract

This research booklet brings together a selection of data and spatial analysis of dwelling types and housing policies and programmes in Ethiopia – in general – with a particular focus on the case of Addis Ababa. This booklet uses historical iconography, archival research and a selection of bibliographic references, to produce a wide range of graphic outputs that illustrate the different dwelling cultures of Ethiopia and systematize the evolution of housing figures that were developed in Addis Ababa over a period of 130 years, from the foundation of the city (c. 1887) until the current days
