City Houses

City-living can present certain limitations. However, in the book you have between your hands, architects overcome the challenge of building unique homes in the middle of a sea of houses. They create space where it is a scarce commodity. They scale the walls lining any given street in order to create a singular abode. They preserve a sense of intimacy, despite being wall to wall with so many other people's homes. It is true, when a home is erected in the middle of an urbanized environment, the rules of the game become even more difficult.
