Description

Over the years, the apartment building has assumed numerous shapes and styles, incorporated vast numbers of technological advances and become the predominant type of housing in cities worldwide. Architects have often introduced a distinct aesthetic quality to high-rise complexes as an attempt to soften perceived harshness of character. This volume collects some of the most recognised designs throughout the world and presents current architectural trends in multi-housing projects. Images and plans show exterior and common areas, as well as private interior spaces.
