<br/><br/> Includes index.  Whether set in the narrow gaps between buildings or in districts awaiting gentrification, whether rising up from unlikely courtyards or industrial ruins, innovative housing options offer today's cosmopolitan families the alluring possibility of living in the midst of it all while simultaneously enjoying their own personal space. This book features a compelling selection of unconventional architectural concepts and townhouses that range from the creatively economical to the sleek and high-end. These dwellings encompass completely new constructions as well as thoughtful renovations of existing buildings. Such targeted repurposing reclaims derelict pieces of the urban landscape for the residential sector.  389955518X  9783899555189 (hbk.) :
