Building Houses One Frame at a Time

Puebla, Mexico: Rome wasn't built in a day, as they say, and neither are most Habitat houses. Even blitz-built houses, such as these in Mexico, grow step by step, with components such as the foundation, walls and roof coming into play at the appropriate time. In much the same way, decent housing itself is a crutial component of life, joining health, education and family to create the soil in which we live and grow. These images were compiled using time-lapse photography.
