More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
In America alone, nearly 70 million people live in urban areas. Fortunately, cities offer as much variety in living spaces as the people who inhabit them - young or old, single or family, super-rich or everyday Joe. Yet many of these unique dwellings, from walk-up studios to narrow brownstones to open lofts, present perplexing design challenges. City dwellers the world over should find inventive ways to make their own cityscape both comfortable and beautiful. This volume takes readers to every corner of the globe to explore some of the most creative and unique design approaches to city living. Paul Wiseman's tiny San Francisco pad offers space-serving solutions for small apartments. A Krueck and Sexton-designed childproof duplex in Chicago shows that style and kids can co-exist. A London townhouse with dark, narrow rooms is creatively designed to change with the seasons. A New York designer's cherry blossom-filled terrace brings gardening to high-rise living.

I was disappointed with this book. Not as creative as I thought it would be. I gave the book to Housing Works.
