Themes:
- concepts and kinds of cohabitation and dwelling
- residential functions
- the creation of living space
- design in housing construction
This book is intended to help readers to find an easy way into the complex subject of housing design, explaining fundamental concepts, the way the individual living areas can cohere, and building form variations. The aim is to understand approaches to making rooms, living areas and entire residential units fit together, and to be able to use this knowledge to develop one's own housing construction design work competently and prudently.

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
