An authoritative volume on the most innovative new residential design in
cities around the globe. This carefully curated book presents
twenty-five new and recent spaces for city living. Author Ron Broadhurst
has selected projects that represent a set of ideas that can be
described as belonging particularly to our time and which will shape how
we think of living in the city in the future. Where the great
experimenters of the last century were stripping away ornamentation and
creating free-flowing spaces for the first time, today’s innovators are
pioneering research in the potential of new materials for both formal
invention and environmental sustainability and creating bold and
sophisticated essays in the adaptive reuse of spaces originally designed
for other purposes. With the newest work from such design luminaries as
Andrée Putman, Annabelle Selldorf, and Richard Meier, as well as
emergent talents like Barbara Bestor and Messana O’Rorke, The Urban
House is a uniquely coherent volume on the best in new residential
design.
