GENERAL
This need for new housing, considered
against a background of continuing urbanization,
clearly indicates that an increasing proportion
of an expanding housing market will
be devoted to multifamily types of housing or
apartments . The inevitability of this trend
contains a challenge to the architect to do
more then merely meet a statistical demand. He
must rather address, identify, and solve the
problems of multifamily building types as an
attractive alternative to freestanding singlefamily
buildings .
This article will deal with multifamily living
in general, with some additional attention to
the problems of the medium- and high-rise
building type (i .e . building types which require
a degree of vertical servicing)

Figure . diagrams possible relationships
among site layout elements which normally
occur in apartment development . As suggested
by the diagram, it is desirable to limit cross
traffic among circulation elements such as
vehicular access and pedestrian access and to
maintain proximity or easy access among Service
activity elements such as the dwelling unit, access
recreation, and parking .

 Building orient:
Building orientation may
be influenced by a
number of factors such as
site, view (desirable
or undesirable), sun, and
prevailing winds .
Closely interrelated to
building orientation
is the question of internal
circulation and floor
layout of the building .
