Innovative residential types

To continue to develop existing building types and do so in an intelligent way is one of the crucial tasks in the field of residential building. For the success of the individual design as well as for ensuring that tried and tested structures can be utilized, repeated, and varied in a wide range of situations, a deeper understanding of the underlying types is indispensable.For this typology of residential buildings, the authors have developed systematic new presentations of the most innovative types. Each individual volume lays out the possibilities for using and transforming a particular form of residential structure.The third volume deals with the types of the townhouse. It will address the following topics among others: single- versus multistory construction, density, privacy versus publicity, and the connection of living and working.Within each type, variants are distinguished according to how they organize space, their number of floors, etc. The range of possible solutions is presented in uniform ground plans newly drawn to scale.

Highlights the wide variety of building types as a resource for residential building Ideas and solutions are a treasure trove for every residential architect Precise, systematic presentations using newly developed drawings

The systematic development of building types is an important task in housing construction. A deeper understanding of the underlying building types is mandatory, both for individual designs and for the wider application and variation of tried-and-tested structures. The authors have developed an innovative, drawing-based approach for unfolding the potentials of several existing building types for the future of urban housing. The first part is dedicated to the courtyard house, in which the courtyard is used as a private outside living space. The second part deals with the popular form of the terraced house and discusses aspects of corner solutions or terraced developments as an urban design element. In the third part, the townhouse is discussed with view to variants such as single-story and apartment buildings, including aspects of privacy and public access, as well as living and working. Finally, the detached house type is considered in its potential to provide all-directional orientation of the living space. The array of solutions is presented consistently in floorplans and cross-sections drawn to scale. In a new introduction to this all-in-one compendium the authors discuss the implications of the typological approach for today''s housing design.

DieKompendium Wohnbautypologie

Die intelligente Weiterentwicklung von Bautypen ist eine wesentliche Aufgabenstellung im Wohnungsbau. Für den einzelnen Entwurf wie für die breite Anwendbarkeit, Wiederholbarkeit und Variation von erprobten Strukturen ist das vertiefte Verständnis der zugrunde liegenden Typen un-verzichtbar. Für diese Wohnungsbautypologie haben die Autoren neue, systematische Darstellungen über innovative Typen entwickelt. In den einzelnen Kapiteln werden die Anwendungs- und Transformationsmöglichkeiten jeweils einer bestimmten Wohnbauform entfaltet.Der erste Teil widmet sich dem Hofhaus, das den Hof als intimen Außenraum des Wohnens nutzt. Der zweite Teil behandelt die weit verbreitete Wohnform des Reihenhauses, erörtert das Prinzip Reihe als Stadtbaustein und die Ecklösungen. Im dritten Teil werden am Typus des Stadthauses Themen wie Flachbau und Geschosswohnungsbau, Privatheit und Öffentlichkeit, Wohnen und Arbeiten durchgespielt. Der Typus des freistehenden Hauses soll schließlich durch seine allseitige Orientierung eine optimale Ausrichtung der Wohnungen ermöglichen. Das Spektrum der Lösungen ist in einheitlich und maßstäblich neu gezeichneten Grundrissen und Schnitten aufgearbeitet. In einer neuen Einleitung diskutieren die Autoren die Möglichkeiten typologischen Entwerfens heute.

Die Ideen und Lösungsansätze sind eine Fundgrube für jeden Wohnbauarchitekten Eine präzise, systematische Darstellung anhand neu entwickelter Zeichnungen Mit einer neuen Einleitung zum typologischen Entwerfen heute

To continue developing existing building types in an intelligent way is a crucial task in the field of residential building. A deeper understanding of the underlying types is indispensable for the success of the individual design, as well as for ensuring that tried and tested structures can be utilized, repeated, and varied in a wide variety of situations. For this typology of residential buildings, the authors have developed systematic new presentations of the most innovative types. Each individual volume lays out the possibilities for using and transforming a particular form of residential structure. The first volume deals with the various types of the courtyard house, which utilizes the courtyard as an intimate outdoor living space. A presentation of the courtyard as a building block of the city is followed by coverage of the complete spectrum of types - cluster, network, carpet, terraces, etc.The second volume is devoted to the various types of row house, a particularly widespread form of residential structure. A general discussion of the row as organizing principle - the row as urban building block, linear space, ways of handling corners - is followed by the systematic presentation of the different types.Within each type, variants are distinguished according to how they organize space, their number of floors, etc. The range of possible solutions is presented in uniform ground plans newly drawn to scale.
