This book was written primarily for students in schools of architecture and home economics, and for architects, builders, and prospective home buyers. Although it is directed chiefly to those who plan, build, remodel, and occupy, or hope to occupy, single-family detached dwellings, it should be of value to those who must select, evaluate, and live in rented houses or apartments. The text and illustrations are presented as a means of teaching basic principles which may be applied to the design and choosing of various kinds of habitations - single or multiple, inexpensive or medium-priced.
