Organized chronologically, it provides deep insights into public and private housing evolution, complemented by a CD-ROM containing all drawings in DWG and EPS formats, making it an indispensable resource for architects and students. ## Description The design of multiple housing – a new building type, especially for growing urban populations – was a major new area of activity for architects at the beginning of the twentieth century, and one that continues into the twenty-first century. This book features some ninety of the most influential modern housing designs of the last hundred years by some of the best-known architects in the field. Each project is explained with a concise text and photographs and specially created scale drawings, including floor plans and site plans, sections and elevations where appropriate. The projects are organized in six roughly chronological chapters tracing the history of both public and private housing around the world. The detailed drawings allow each project to be analyzed in depth, which, alongside the author’s authoritative text, will make this an invaluable resource for architects and students. As an added bonus, the book includes a CD-ROM containing digital files of all the drawings featured in the book. 150 color photographs; 500 line drawings Review: Outstanding professional reference - Wow! This is an excellent and substandtive review of multifamily housing projects. Unlike many architecture books, which simply include a few random details along with the photos, this is a serious reference work. Each project is presented in a consistent fashion with its key features explained. Graphics are consistent between projects. If that weren't enough, it also includes a CD with all the referenced drawings in DWG and EPS formats. This is a must for any architect interested in multifamily housing. Review: GReat book for Architects - I looked at this book at the book store for a while designing apartment buildings. I had to get it just to have it in my library. Great floor plans and inspiring ideas. Love Le Corbusier's floor plans for multi-leveled apartments! ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,924,148 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2,038 in Residential Architecture #2,769 in Architecture Reference (Books) #3,652 in Architectural History | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 37 Reviews | ## Images ![Key Urban Housing of the Twentieth Century: Plans, Sections and Elevations (Key Architecture Series) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61apikkRBgL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding professional reference *by J***. on October 9, 2013* Wow!
