Sinopsis, this title presents the best in modern urban living in
an architectural format that defines the urban landscape,
rather than being defined by it. As one of the
basic building blocks of the city, the townhouse is at
the same time a refuge from the city. With architectural
innovation and design refinement as key principles,
the celebrated architects featured herein have interpreted
an ages-old form in groundbreaking new
ways. Secret rooftop gardens, sweeping interiors,
striking decor and facades that make a statement
are just some of the elements that are unique to the
genre, all illustrated in elegant full-color photography
and commentary contributed by the designing
architects themselves.
