## Description

Housing is rapidly having to adapt to the global changes of the twenty first century. These include the transformation of the family and the rise of the nontraditional household, increases in construction costs, and concerns over climate change and the depletion of natural resources. Designing residential environments that address these issues is an urgent priority. This book examines the latest residential design trends that have arisen in response to these challenges. Divided into four broad areas, tightly focused thematic chapters look at twenty discrete topics, such as live/work; adaptable housing; prefabrication; water efficiency; green roofs; innovative landscaping. Each chapter includes an essay that lays out principles, methods, and practices. Using text, drawings, and photos from a variety of contemporary international practices, the book demonstrates how these ideas can be applied by architects. It offers a comprehensive collection of strategies and examples that will inspire a much needed housing revolution.

Review: Fantastic book - This book is not only great in written content, but it also in visuals. The dialogue is easy to understand, especially paired with the brilliant photos and plans. I will be using this book as a valuable source of information while writing my Interior Design thesis.
Review: Wide ranging topics - Brief but substantial profiles on innovative houses. A good resource for builders, architects, academics, students. Packed with excellent photos, thanks.
