The Urban House: Townhouses, Apartments, Lofts, and Other

The Urban House: Townhouses, Apartments, Lofts, and Other Spaces for City Living

An authoritative volume on the most innovative new residential design in cities around the globe. This carefully curated book presents twenty-five new and recent spaces for city living. Author Ron Broadhurst has selected projects that represent a set of ideas that can be described as belonging particularly to our time and which will shape how we think of living in the city in the future. Where the great experimenters of the last century were stripping away ornamentation and creating free-flowing spaces for the first time, todayâ€™s innovators are pioneering research in the potential of new materials for both formal invention and environmental sustainability and creating bold and sophisticated essays in the adaptive reuse of spaces originally designed for other purposes. With the newest work from such design luminaries as AndrÃ©e Putman, Annabelle Selldorf, and Richard Meier, as well as emergent talents like Barbara Bestor and Messana Oâ€™Rorke, The Urban House is a uniquely coherent volume on the best in new residential design.
