The Floor Plan Manual Housing has for decades been a seminal work in the field of architecture. In its 5th, revised and expanded edition, approximately 160 international housing projects built after 1945 are documented and analyzed. The focus is on exemplary and transferrable projects, and on innovative and trendsetting concepts. The systematic representation of all projects allows the reader to compare and evaluate various floor plans – and to be inspired by the wealth of ideas and strategies for one’s own design work. The introductory theoretical and historical essays have been newly written or updated, and offer a structured overview of the residential housing typology and its development.

Despite a growing trend towards sharing, and an increasing number of single family households combined with a growing need for flexibility, the individual single family home remains an extremely popular choice. In addition to following building guidelines, private single family homes are also expected to fulfil high standards when it comes to energy, and often cost efficiency. Nevertheless, they continue to provide considerable scope for architects and designers. Best of DETAIL: Single-Family Homes brings together a collection of relevant highlights from DETAIL. The publication is made up of theoretical articles and a comprehensive section containing examples of projects which provide unique insights into the various applications of wood, concrete or masonry in a range of passive houses, bungalows, double- and semi-detached houses, and villas with swimming pools, from the simple to the luxurious. What these projects have in common is an ambitious aesthetic quality, which can be summed up as good architecture, providing readers with a great deal of inspiration and constructive solutions for their own practice. Trotz "Sharing"-Trends, zunehmender Anzahl von Singlehaushalten und steigendem Bedarf an Flexibilität, ist das individuelle Einfamilienhaus nach wie vor eine sehr beliebte Wohnform.

Best of DETAIL: Einfamilienhäuser bündelt die Highlights zu diesem Thema aus DETAIL. Die Publikation beinhaltet neben theoretischen Fachbeiträgen einen ausführlichen Projektbeispielteil, der einzigartige Einblicke bietet in die unterschiedlichsten Realisierungen aus Holz, Beton oder Mauerwerk, als Passivhaus oder Bungalow, Doppel-, Reihenhaus oder Villa mit Swimmingpool, von einfach bis luxuriös. Gemeinsam ist allen die anspruchsvolle ästhetische Qualität, kurz: gute Architektur, die eine Menge Inspirationen und konstruktive Lösungsbeispiele für die eigene Praxis liefert.

The twenty-seven houses included in her new book are among the most memorable of Mississippi's vanished antebellum and Victorian mansions. The list ranges from the oldest house in the Natchez region, lost in a 1966 fire, to a Reconstruction-era home that found new life as a school for freed slaves.
