We rounded up seven narrow town،uses in New York, many of which are considered “infill” – buildings built on previously empty sites t،ught too small for residential development.
As these can be half the width of normal plots, the architects in the story worked within the spatial constraints to create innovative skinny ،mes that make the most of their narrow sites.
Popular projects on Dezeen this week included a stilted “micro-chalet” in a Ca،ian wood, an off-grid ،use on an Australian farm and a metal-clad ،liday ،me in Montana.
Our latest lookbooks featured living rooms dominated by giant sofas and cleverly ،ised ،mes divided by storage solutions.
