Designed by such masters as Frank Lloyd Wright, Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe, and Alvar Aalto, the buildings are illustrated with photographs, site plans, floor plans, elevations, and striking axonometric drawings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy including idiosyncratic works, Sherwood has encompassed the best that ‘modern’ architecture has offered us to live in. His list of examples is difficult to fault and his drawings and informative text make this book well worth owning. * Journal of Architectural Education *\u003cbr\u003ePresented so clearly and concisely, Sherwood’s projects may be easily compared and are comprehensible to those unfamiliar with housing design. The book itself is attractively organized, harmoniously balancing text, photograph, and drawing. The juxtaposition of these, as well as the use of color in selected axonometrics, adds not only to the beauty of this collection but also to the accessibility and clarity of the projects presented within. * The Yale Graduate Professional *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction    Detached and Semidetached Housing    Suntop Homes Frank Lloyd Wright   El Pueblo Ribera Court Rudolph M.
