Apartment building, Knightsbridge, 1957Walter Segal building at Surrey Docks Farm
Walter Segal (15 May 1907 – 27 October 1985)[1] was an architect who developed a system of self-build housing, the
Segal self-build method. Based on traditional timber frame methods modified to use standard modern materials, his method eliminates the need for wet trades such as bricklaying and plastering, resulting in a light-weight method which can be built with minimal experience and is ecologically sound. The roofs tend to be flat with many layers of roofing felt, which allows the creation of grass-covered roofs. Foundations are minimal, often just paving slabs, the strength coming from the geometry of their construction. Segal houses have been compared to traditional Japanese houses.[2]
