Single family houses
Detail
The private single family house is still the most popular residential alternative. Recently, however, a changing demographic structure and personal expectations, together with continually rising energy costs and the depletion of our natural resources, tend to make this traditional housing solution somewhat impractical. Topics such as multi-functionality, the application of innovative building materials and low-energy, sustainable construction techniques are subsequently gaining in relevance.
In order to keep abreast of changes and developments in the field, DETAIL has now released the fully revised and extended second edition of „in DETAIL Single Family Houses“. The customary arrangement of the „in DETAIL“ volumes has been adhered to, along with the retention of clearly laid-out and detailed project documentation. Introductory essays address specific layouts, communicate the essentials of planning principles and provide a multitude of handy hints for practical implementation. The subsequent selection of international examples, consistent with the established style of presentation, demonstrates the latest trends in the design of single family houses.
„in DETAIL Single Family Houses“ is both a source of inspiration and planning manual alike.
