Anderton's book shows how connected dwellings work as good architecture and good social systems; multi-family housing itself will become an aspirational form of dwelling, not second in status or style to single family homes.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2022 GOLD Winner for Regional, Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Awards\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor decades, the Los Angeles lifestyle has been equated with the suburban single-family home with a big backyard, yet L.A. has also been a laboratory for exceptional experiments in multifamily housing, from the courtyard to the rooftop garden, all centered on shared open space. In \u003ci\u003eCommon Ground: Multifamily Housing in Los Angeles\u003c\/i\u003e, author Frances Anderton explores that fascinating history, from the bungalow courts and apartment-hotels of the 1910s, to the development of garden apartments, to contemporary mid-rise \"urban villages,\" and experiments in co-living. \u003ci\u003eCommon Ground\u003c\/i\u003e features the work of the Zwebells, Rudolph Schindler, Richard Neutra, John Lautner, Ralph Vaughn, Koning Eizenberg, Sean Knibb, Michael Maltzan, Brooks + Scarpa, Lorcan O'Herlihy, Shin Shin, and many more.
