Abstract

This book shows how city houses can define the urban landscape. One of the basic building blocks of the city, the town house also provides a refuge from city life.

Secret rooftop gardens, sweeping interiors, striking decor, facades that make a statement - these are just some of the elements revealed here, in elegant full-color photos and in-depth commentaries from the architects themselves.
