 In
view of the growing number of diverse life styles, the search
for flexible, adaptable floor plans has become a fundamental
issue in residential building. That the continued demand in
urban centres can only be responsibly satisfied by
high-density housing is undisputed. More than ever before,
building high-density housing is a complex, diverse and
challenging task for planners and architects. This book
presents international projects which document the breadth and
complexity of the task, from the design of the floor plans,
the development and use of resources, to the use of
economically beneficial building systems. The high quality of
the architecture and construction in such residential areas
can be clearly seen in the uniform illustrations of the floor
plans, and large-scale drawings of details which facilitate
comparison. The introductory contributions discuss extensively
the difficult and provocative topic of floor plan design and
development. This book is a comprehensive review of the
current state of residential building, the perspectives,
trends and future developments.
