Features: The framework of this book is composed of an overview of collective residential communities → planning stage → design philosophy → case studies. Unlike standalone houses designed specifically for a particular family, the design of collective residential communities is a major undertaking in creating a neighborhood and building a society. Therefore, the conditions determined in the planning stage are quite extensive, and the design itself is not limited to the scope of architecture but also involves various technical aspects such as civil engineering, landscape design, and equipment. This book strives to explain the series of procedures for planning and design in a concise manner, making it easier for those who will engage in the planning and design of collective residential communities to grasp the necessary foundational knowledge.
