Review: How much action can one book trigger? I wonder how many of theprojects can be traced back to readers being inspired by thisbook.

Beautifully illustrated, well researched, the book conveys well the Aha erlebnis these architects must have experienced as they discovered these very liveable Danish communities.

For readers who like architecture and wonder what kind of housing community can deliver homeliness based on both privacy and community.
