Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This groundbreaking book explores the historical context behind modern building practices, analyzing how the author's contemporaries determined optimum building height, bulk, and form. The book places particular emphasis on a need to consider privacy, natural light, and general health and well-being of a buildingâs inhabitants, a notion ahead of its time. The author leans heavily on the work of the many brilliant minds that came before him, presenting the culmination of their research, which laid the groundwork for future urban planning. Through analysis of a wide pool of building management information, the author sought to marry the often divergent priorities of aesthetic needs and economic demands.
