Walter Segal (15 May 1907 – 27 October 1985) 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.

  • Walter Segal (1907 - 1985) fue un arquitecto que desarrolló un sistema de autoconstrucción de vivienda. El 'método de autoconstrucción Segal' se basa en métodos tradicionales modificados de estructura de madera para utilizar los materiales estándar disponibles en la actualidad. Elimina la necesidad de oficios húmedos como albañilería y enyesado que resulta en un método de peso ligero que se puede construir con experiencia mínima y son ecológicamente sana. Los techos tienden a ser planas con muchas capas de tela asfáltica, que permite la creación de techos cubiertos de hierba. Fundamentos son mínimas, a menudo sólo el tendido de capas, la fuerza proveniente de la geometría de su construcción. Casas Segal se han comparado con las casas tradicionales japonesas.​ (es)
  • Walter Segal (Berlino, 15 maggio 1907 – Londra, 27 ottobre 1985) è stato un architetto svizzero naturalizzato britannico che sviluppò l'omonimo sistema di autocostruzione di edifici in legno. Il Metodo Segal si basa sulla tradizione dei telaio in legno modificato con i nuovi materiali oggi disponibili. Viene eliminata la necessità di aver bisogno di lavoratori specializzati, come muratori o imbianchini, con la conseguente semplificazione dei metodi di costruzione per i quali basta la minima esperienza. Inoltre i materiali sono altamente tecnoligici. I tetti tendono ad essere piatti e con molti strati di cartone catramato, che permette la creazione di coperture in erba. Le fondazioni sono minime, spesso solo lastre di pavimentazione, la forza proviene dalla semplice geometria della loro cos (it)
