What is the meaning of the house and its materiality for migrants? This book aims to find out through an exploration of homes of migrants from Italy and China in Melbourne, and migrants from Morocco and the former Soviet Union in Tel Aviv. It argues that every migrant group constructs a distinct form of home-building in their houses/homes.
