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:
Every architect dreams of a perfect client, and every client dreams of a perfect architect. Alas, these relationships don't always work out to everyone's expectations.

The New Modern House features forty new buildings where the synergy between the right designer and the right client resulted in works that surpass everyone's expectations. The book is divided into five thematic chapters - conditions, materials, environment, budget, and aesthetics - and each contain eight case studies. These include Rafael Vinoly's Piano House in New York; Sean Godsell's Peninsula House in Australia; and Ahadu Abaineh's Tree House in Ethiopia, among others. Beautifully produced, The New Modern House captures these noteworthy designs with a wealth of colour photography, plans, and drawings, and makes an ideal book for anybody dreaming of the perfect house.
