Multifamily buildings are commonly beset with a variety of unique demands and conditions that need to be interpreted and coordinated by architects and designers. From the business concerns of the owner to the relationships between all involved in the project, to the needs and safety of the end users, there are multiple inter-related design decisions to make. This course looks at some of the big picture issues as well as some important details related to balancing the desire for well-designed living units with popular amenities, safety, durability, and livability.
