4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting look at all the different types of cities and the houses that exists within them, February 6, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Today's City Houses (Hardcover)
This book features the many different types of houses that exist in the many different cities throughout the world. As broad as the range of houses that are featured in this book, so too are the conditions of each cityscape that it is built on. It is interesting how the term "city houses" evokes an image of a dwelling squeezed into a dense urban plot, but that is not always the case. Some houses in cities such as San Francisco or Vienna seem to enjoy a space that is only possible in a suburban context. Despite all the differences of the houses featured, they all deal with the issue of privacy and fitting in or out of the urban context that exists already.
Some of the more interesting projects include House H by Sugiura Office and House in Rue Galvani by Christian Pottgiesser.
