This insightful volume shares design ideas to help builders,
planners and architects create mass-produced affordable housing
that pushes suburban development in more sustainable, liveable
directions. The author argues that improving the quality of design
in our new homes and communities for greater resiliency,
sustainability, and equality, we can build neighborhoods and
communities where residents feel more connected t their homes and
to one another. Through text, photographs and illustrations, the
book reviews prototypical American housing design, then suggest
ways to both learn from the past as well as adapt for new
environmental imperatives, demographic changes and lifestyle needs.
Written by a practicing architect with 25+ years of experience
optimizing residential design, this pioneering approach to suburban
building will inspire readers to view mass produced housing through
a new, modern lens.
