Row Houses and Terraced Houses

Row Houses and Terraced Houses

Row houses and terraced houses are dwellings arranged in continuous groups that share adjoining walls. The building form combines separate households with a repeated relationship to the street, often using narrow plots and several floors. Entrances, stair placement, rear yards, and shared boundaries shape domestic layouts, while variations in facades and rooflines distinguish local traditions within the continuous street frontage.

Urban Housing Forms

Urban housing combines private dwellings with shared boundaries, circulation, or building systems in different ways. Row houses, apartments, residential towers, and penthouses contrast street-level frontage with collective and upper-floor accommodation, showing how density, entrances, outdoor space, and vertical movement shape domestic architecture.
