Drawing from the roster of award-winning residences featured since 1956 in "Record houses", the magazine's prestigious “best of” annual issue, this revised and expanded edition of the 1996 Abrams book showcases more than 75 of the most innovative and influential houses built in the last 50 years. Designed by such luminaries as Philip Johnson, Richard Meier, Gwathmey Siegel & Associates, Frank Gehry, and the 2005 Pritzker Prize–winner Thom Mayne of Morphosis, these houses have helped shape the direction of residential architecture. Texts by six noted architectural writers provide commentary on the key trends and developments of residential architecture in the last half century, and each decade is represented by a portfolio of photographs, along with numerous plans and drawings.

Summary:
Once the bastion of the haute bourgeoisie, the town house has now been embraced by families with young children, single urban professionals, and retired couples, all looking for more comfortable city or suburban living. Architect Alexander Gorlin explores an array of diverse town house designs (often referred to by different terms in different parts of the country) that carry this familiar symbol of architectural innovation and refinement into the twenty-first century. "Creating the new American town house" features cutting-edge town houses that each draw from architectural tradition while achieving originality by both breaking from and adhering to the limitations of the town house form. Within the typical five-story frame and two parallel walls presented here are livable design solutions to the constraints of this classic housing type. Ranging from sites in New York, San Francisco, Seattle, Los Angeles, and Washington, DC, each of the buildings featured in "Creating the new American town house" is designed by such celebrated architects as Steven Ehrlich, Hugh Newell Jacobson, Stanley Saitowitz, and 1100 Architect. Each project is illustrated with full-color photography that showcases the interior design as well as plans and drawings. Alexander Gorlin’s text continues the discourse begun in his "The new American town house", surveying the adaptation of this beloved urban dwelling to the demands of a new century.

Summary:
The Barbican Estate is one of the most berated and beloved architectural projects in London. Taking over 20 years to complete from its inception in 1963, it was widely condemned in the 1980s for its acreage of relentless concrete and lack of clear entrances. Since then, however, it has inspired passion and enthusiasm from residents and visitors alike. With its penthouses and tower apartments, it provided one of the earliest prototypes for loft living in England. Located close to the City and Clerkenwell, it is now one of the most desirable addresses for politicians, financiers, creative professionals and media figures alike. In the book, the author, David Heathcote traces the development of the Barbican from pre-war planning to present day. Built on the largest blitzed site in the City of London, it was conceived as a new Belgravia to bring the professional classes back to the heart of the City. The project overcame all sorts of difficulties, from the challenges of London's geology to the economic problems that beset Britain in the 1960s and 1970s. The final scheme involved the construction of the highest apartments in Europe, with elements derived from the elegant squares of Georgian London , contemporary architects like Le Corbusier and Scharoun, and the Baroque architecture and gardens of Italy.
