"What makes a great house in the city? This title examines what has
worked well in some of the most successful housing types throughout
the world - from old to new, high rise to low rise, innovative to
conventional. Authors Robert Dalziel and Sheila Qureshi critically
examine what they believe are the most significant elements of
urban housing design: adaptability and flexibility, construction
and sustainability, space and light, appearance and threshold, and
density and urban form. A House in the City concludes by proposing
a pioneering approach to the town house: incorporating insights
from these most important elements of urban housing, culminating in
an aesthetically-pleasing family home that can adapt to changing
needs. Illustrated with aerial views, plans, sections and
photographs, A House in the City will be of use to all who strive
to deliver high quality urban housing for the 21st century,
including architects, planners and developers."
