Home›Residential Buildings›Group›Apartment and Multi-Family BuildingsGroupApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsA building purpose designed to house more than one household under a single roof or across a single architectural complex, spanning early twentieth century apartment blocks, mid-century housing estates and towers, and contemporary mixed-use residential high-rises. What unites this group is the multi-unit program itself: a building conceived from the outset to serve many separate households at once, which sets it apart from every single-family house group here, whether that house is a plantation house, a villa, a museum-operated historic house, or a modern architect-designed demonstration house built for one family.FactsApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonEra of EmergenceWell-attested100 CE 1Origin RegionWell-attestedItaly (Ostia) 1Apartment and Multi-Family BuildingsFilter Results22 entriesArchitectAllAntoni Gaudi (1)Building FamilyAllApartment and Multi-Family Buildings (22)StyleAllArt Deco (1)Art Nouveau (1)Bauhaus (1)Brutalism (3)Constructivist Architecture (1)Contemporary architecture (1)Metabolism (1)Modernist Architecture (3)Neo-Futurism (1)Queen Anne Style Architecture (1)Renaissance Architecture (2)MaterialAllBrick (3)Precast Concrete (2)Sandstone (1)Steel (1)Stone (2)Terracotta (1)Timber (1)Building TypeAllApartment Building (2)Apartment building complex (1)Council housing estate (1)Double house (1)House (2)Housing Complex (1)housing estate (1)Mixed-Use Complex (1)Mixed-Use Development (1)Mixed-use residential and commercial skyscraper (1)Mixed-use tower with commercial office and rental apartments (1)Multifamily residential (2)Residential (3)Residential and Office Tower (1)Residential apartment building (1)Residential maisonette block (1)Shophouse (1)Tong lau (1)Villa (1)Completed YearAll1880 (1)1883 (1)1903 (1)1906 (2)1912 (1)1922 (2)1927 (2)1934 (1)1952 (2)1964 (1)1966 (1)1967 (1)1968 (1)1969 (1)1970 (1)1972 (2)1982 (1)2005 (1)2006 (1)2010 (1)2013 (1)Standing StatusAllDemolished (2)Standing (20)PlaceAllBrazil (1)Canada (1)China (2)Denmark (1)France (1)Germany (1)Italy (1)Japan (1)Russia (1)Singapore (1)Spain (2)Sweden (1)United Kingdom (4)United States (4)BrowseCompareSelect all 227 Mallory StreetApartment and Multi-Family Buildings8 HouseApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsAnglecotApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsBarbican EstateApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsBlue House (Hong Kong)Apartment and Multi-Family BuildingsByker WallApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsCasa BatlloApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsCasa MilaApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsEdificio CopanApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsHabitat 67Apartment and Multi-Family BuildingsIsokon BuildingApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsKieldson Double HouseApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsMarina CityApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsMelnikov HouseApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsNakagin Capsule TowerApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsRobin Hood GardensApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsThe DakotaApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsThe InterlaceApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsTurning TorsoApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsUnite d'Habitation, MarseilleApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsVilla Somaglia-BalconiApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsWeissenhof EstateApartment and Multi-Family BuildingsSources1.
